A month ago Steven Hanson was released as part of President Jacob Zuma’s remission programme – and on Thursday he appeared in the Porterville Magistrate’s Court on charges of rape and abduction.

Hanson, 51, and his co-accused Jurgen George, who is charged only with rape, were arrested at Hanson’s home in Porterville.

It is alleged that the two men kept a 39-year-old woman at his house for three days and raped her several times.
