Two young men aged 20 and 21 years from Baope ward in Khakhea village have been arrested for allegedly gang-raping a 19-year-old girl.

The victim stays in the same village, at Motsumi ward. Details of the incident are that the teenager was returning home from a bar on Saturday and the two followed her.

She realised that she was being followed by two young men that she identified from the same bar she had been at earlier, and never suspected that they would harm her.

The duo finally caught up with her and grabbed her aggressively pulling her to the home of one of the suspects, where they gang-raped her without using condoms.

Superintendent Batani Lehuma of Mabutsane police said they have detained two suspects who have not yet appeared before court as investigations on the matter are still ongoing.
