Kimberley – Disciplinary proceedings against the four Northern Cape Agricultural High School (Hoër Landbouskool Noord Kaap) pupils accused of raping and assaulting a fellow pupil at the school’s hostel in Jan Kempdorp, will commence this week at the school.

During the incident, which was captured on video, the four pupils allegedly raped the victim by inserting a toothbrush and mop handle into his rectum after tying him to a bed and smearing a white substance over his naked body and then shaving off his eyebrows and hair.

The four, two of whom are 18 years old, one a 15-year-old and the youngest being a 14-year-old, were suspended from the school on February 9 and will face a disciplinary committee on Thursday and Friday, after the unavailability of legal representation caused a postponement from the original date of February 25.
