A-26-YEAR-OLD man is set to appear at Kgomotso Magistrate’s Court for rape and murder of Tshimologo Lotshabeng (4) on Monday. It is alleged that the suspect kidnapped, raped and murdered Lobatsheng and dumped her tiny body in the near bushes afterward.
North West police spokesperson, Lit Col Amanda Funani said on 14 May 2021, the mother (32) of Tshimologo took her to her friend’s place, where she left her with six other children and went to a local tavern. Funani further said it is alleged that the mother came back drunk in the early hours of Saturday morning accompanied by two friends.
“The mother who found the children asleep, apparently slept in her friend’s bedroom. She woke up in the morning and realised that her daughter is missing. As a result, she went to her residential place to look for the girl, but did not find her.
“A missing person inquiry was ultimately reported on 15 May 2021. Subsequently, the search was conducted in the area and Tshimologo’s clothes and her naked body were found in the bushes on 16 May 2021,” she said.
Funani added that the preliminary investigation revealed that the young girl was allegedly raped and strangled to death. She said the suspect was arrested on Thursday at his residential area in Jan Kempdorp.
“The suspect allegedly waited for the mother to fall asleep, then kidnapped the child and took her to the nearby bushes where he raped and killed her. The suspect is expected to appear in the Kgomotso Magistrate’s Court on Monday,” Funani said.
