Father arrested. Infant rapes are acts of ‘extreme violence’, usually against the mother.
WHAT makes a father rape and kill his 8-day-old baby girl? Vengeance.
That’s the explanation from Women and Men Against Child Abuse head of advocacy head Luke Lamprecht after an infant – possibly the country’s youngest rape victim – was raped and killed by her father in Welverdiend, Carletonville.
SAPS spokesperson Captain Mavela Masondo said the 36-year-old father of four was arrested and appeared in the Oberholzer Magistrate’s Court last week on rape and murder charges.
