The Buffalo City District Commissioner, Major General Christopher Wright, has welcomed the hefty sentence handed down to a 56-year-old man, for the rape of his 11-year-old niece.


On 13 January 2024, the suspect visited relatives at Tuba Location, Kwelera, East London, where his young niece resided. The victim was sleeping in a room with cousins of a similar age. The accused, who was drunk and accustomed to sleeping at that house, entered the room, forcibly undressed the child, and raped her. It was later established that this was not the first time he had assaulted her.

Later that same night, the victim woke up and told her mother what had happened. The mother saw the uncle coming out of the room where the child had been sleeping.

The matter was brought to the attention of family members in April 2024, and a meeting was held, but the uncle denied all allegations. That same month, the mother visited a clinic, where the medical examination confirmed that penetration had occurred. On 1 May 2024, she opened a rape case.

Constable Duma Bam of the Mdantsane Family Violence, Child Protection and Sexual Offenses (FCS) Unit, investigated the case. The suspect was arrested at his place of residence on 9 May 2024. He appeared in court on 10 May 2024, and bail was successfully opposed. He remained in custody until his conviction and sentencing.

On Tuesday, 31 March 2026, the East London Regional Court convicted the accused of rape and sentenced him to 18 years’ imprisonment. Additionally, he was declared unfit to possess a firearm, and his name was ordered to be entered into the National Register for Sex Offenders.

Congratulations to Constable Duma Bam of the Mdantsane Family Violence, Child Protection and Sexual Offenses (FCS) Unit, all members attached and the NPA Prosecuting team.
May you all find Peace and God bless you all.

In the wild the most beautiful leopard has no heart but still understand NOT to RAPE.
In real life, when the PREDOTOR adds ALCHHOL, the real monster emerges.
Our most venerable must be protected at ALL costs.
Although the law sees 18 years a fair sentence we at East Rand Crime Watch News in Boksburg, Johannesburg believe that CHILD RAPE MONSTERS must never be given a second chance at ALL.
I pray the little 11 year old find PEACE and moves on with her life asap. You still have the rest of your life to LIVE. God bless you.

 Tuesday 21 April 2026 NPA WELCOMES LIFE SENTENCES IN DEADLY UPINGTON ROAD RAGE DOUBLE MURDER AND ATTEMPTED MURDER CASE Upington, Northern Cape – The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) welcomes the sentence imposed on John Ivan Francious Mouton (50), a resident of Upington, who was convicted by the High Court in Upington on two counts of murder and four counts of attempted murder following a tragic and senseless incident arising from a road collision. The matter stems from events that unfolded in the early hours of 17 December 2022. The accused was involved in a motor vehicle collision with Joshua Rock. Following the collision, he retrieved a firearm from his vehicle and threatened Rock. During this confrontation, Shadrack Dube, a friend of Rock, arrived at the scene and attempted to intervene and defuse the situation. Despite these efforts, the accused discharged his firearm twice. Rock subsequently left the scene, while Dube remained behind. Shortly thereafter, the owner of the...

  The following article was published on 04/14/2025 By Ben Lefebvre Politico.com : 2025: The U.S. oil industry is suffering from the lowest crude prices in years, surging costs for steel and an economic downturn that could send consumer demand for its products plummeting. Oil prices have tumbled nearly 15 percent since April 2 to their lowest level since April 2021, a drop that is testing oil executives’ patience. And it’s prompting some in the industry to warn the White House that Trump’s trade policy risks killing his plan for “energy dominance.” So far, though, the sector is sticking with its support of President Donald Trump, hoping that his calls to negotiate trade pacts with individual countries to avoid tariffs and Republicans’ plan to extend tax cuts would offset their financial pain. The industry’s reluctance to publicly criticize Trump is noteworthy given the pain it is feeling from the import taxes he’s hiked on the steel that oil companies need for new pipelines and pro...
