KIMBERLEY- The Galeshewe Family Violence Child Protection and Sexual Offences Unit (FCS) in Galeshewe is appealing to the community to assist them in tracing a rape suspect.

It is alleged that  on the 26th September 2014, the victim was walking in Galeshewe when she was confronted by the suspect who is known to her.

The suspect forced the victim back to his shanty and when she refused, he started assaulting her.

He then dragged her to his shanty and continued to assault her.

“The suspect then allegedly raped her. The suspect also locked her up in his shanty for four days and only managed to escape when he went to work” colonel Priscilla Naidu said.

The suspect was last seen in Greenpoint and Beaconsfield but he is originally from 80c Soul City.

Northern Cape police spokesperson Priscilla Naidu said he is also known by the name Seuntjie and is approximately 30 years-old and about 1.6 m tall.

“He is slender-built, is a coloured male and light in complexion” Naidu said.

Anyone who can assist police in tracing the suspect is asked to contact D/Sgt De Jong on 053 8076161.
