The scums will rot in jail

It is has not happened in recent times that one gets sentenced to a massive 140 years in prison!!But that’s exactly what a no-nonsense Extension ll Chief Magistrate Kamogelo Mmesi did last week when he sent three Zimbabwean men - Nfakadzi Ndlovu (35), Progressive Ndlovu (36) and Lloyd Maposa (37) to what effectively is a life imprisonment.From late 2018 until their arrest in 2019, this trio had turned Tlokweng upside down, going on a rape spree - molesting women in the most horrific and barbaric ways ever, stealing cars and robbing many people of their valuables.The court heard that Maposa and Ndlovu each had five cases of rape, seven cases of robbery, two for theft and one of stealing from a house. Progressive on the other hand, had four cases of rape, five for robbery, and one for theft of a motor vehicle.Believing that it was indeed all over for them, Magistrate Mmesi then announced that Nfakadzi and Maposa will serve reduced sentences of 65 years while Progressive will be locked up for 40 years.What it means is that the foreign nationals will probably grow old in prison, they will be released when they are 80 or 90 years old.FLASHBACK TO 2018When this publication followed the story of the three men back in 2018, police had warned that Maposa was a very dangerous man, along with Nfakazi, saying they have records of rape and robbery cases dating from as far back as 2016.The trio was at one point caught with money and stolen goods valued at P22, 000.Police spokesperson Dipheko Motube had at the time shared that the police received reports that the men had broken into a house and raped two women in front of their mother. They would later make away with their laptops, watches and cell-phones among other valuables.Crime Intelligence boss, Nunu Lesetedi and his team were also hard at work. Lesetedi said the trio entered the victims’ house around 3am, tied them up, raped them, took their bank cards and went to cash their money at a nearby ATM machine.After they were arrested, various people that said they had been raped and robbed by the trio before, were called to identify the men and their missing goods.A woman and her partner arrived in a classy Mercedes Benz, and from her overflowing tears, one could see she was one of the victims from previous incidents.CID officers gathered around the couple and after a while, the couple went to a car surrounded by other CID officers. There, inside, was Progressive, and the emotional woman identified him as the perpetrator of her heart-rending incident.The broken woman was raped in front of her man, with the perpetrators throwing shades at the man regarding their good sex skills. “They asked him how he felt watching them having sex with his woman and used demeaning language to hurt him,” said Lesetedi.A man whose two helpers were raped by the trio told The Midweek Sun that they went through his neighbour’s yard and cut his electric fence. It was around 2am when he got the shock of his life.“They came dragging our two maids from downstairs, and went and tied them up with iron cables, then they used my suit ties and ensured that both my legs and hands were tied up. They also tied my wife,” he said, adding that they threatened them with knives.Another victim said that she was shocked as to how the accused men managed to enter their electric-fenced yard, which even has an alarm and burglar bars around and main doors.“They threatened me with knives and axes and raped me, demanded my bank cards and PINs, and went and cashed close to P20 000,” she said, adding that her neighbour had also become a victim earlier.
