A 21-year-old man has been sentenced to 15 years imprisonment by the Nongoma Regional Court for raping a 79-year-old woman in KwaZulu-Natal.
Spokesperson for the South African Police Service Captain Nqobile Gwala said Thandanani Vuyo Sishwili was sentenced on Tuesday for the crime he committed in 2015.
“The 21-year-old accused entered the room of a 79-year-old pensioner on 3 November 2015 during the day at KwaSishwili area, Nongoma and demanded cash,” Gwala said.
When the 79-year-old told Sishwili that she did not have money he assaulted, raped and strangled her.
Sishwili was arrested a month after the incident was reported.
