Wanted 'rapist commits suicide'

Jun 22, 2012 | Mogomotsi Selebi | 69 comments

A SUSPECTED rapist allegedly committed suicide yesterday morning - just before police could arrest him.

The 57-year-old man from Krugersdorp on the West Rand, was wanted in connection with the rape of his 14-year-old step-daughter.

According to police spokesman Lieutenant-Colonel Lungelo Dlamini, the girl had accused the man of repeatedly raping her.

"A case of rape was opened and he was to be questioned," Dlamini said.

Having failed to turn himself in at the police station as promised, the police went looking for him. However, when they arrived at his place he was not present.

A community member then called the police, alerting them about the discovery of a dead body at a local park.

Good riddens!!... But since when must do you have to turn yourself in when you commit a crime? Are you not supposed to be arrested? Or do the police wait for all criminals to turn themselves in?...*confused face*

I was telling myself that i am not going to comment on any topic today, until I read Maezisto's comment.

@Maezisto

Are you a reformed rapist ? You are fuccken pathetic.

@14year old girl:

Good girl, he was your stepfather anyway, not your blood father. I wonder if the Mom knew about these rapes. Some women can sacrifice their child's soul just to have bread and Hair money.
