Biesvlei-North West police arrested a man after he allegedly raped a pregnant teenager at Koppiesfontein on Saturday.

Police said a 16 year-old girl was from nearby farm when she allegedly met a 32 year-old man on her way.

“A man allegedly pounced on her and raped her despite a cry from a girl. The girl allegedly informed the suspect that she is pregnant, but a man decided to ignore her plea” captain Pelonomi Makau said.

The girl allegedly reported the ordeal to the police and a man was arrested on Sunday morning.

“He will appear before Lichtenburg Magistrate Court for rape on Monday” she said.
