The South African Police Service in Limpopo welcomes the jail term passed by the Polokwane High Court on Thursday 19 March 2020.

Tlou Caswell Ramasenya aged 27, was sentenced to an effective eighteen years imprisonment without the option of a fine by the Polokwane High Court following a rape incident that occurred on the 7 May 2017, in the Seshego policing precinct outside the City of Polokwane.

The rapist and his accomplices raped two girls aged 14 and 15 after they met them on the road at about 00:00 midnight. On that night, a group of men driving in an open bakkie between Ga-Matamanyane and Ga-Mabitsela villages, met the two girls walking in a group with other people.

They then stopped the vehicle and chased them until they grabbed and forced them into the car. The suspects then drove to one of the villages where they took turns raping the two girls.

Following the incident, police were notified and investigations activated. The case was then assigned to Sergeant Teffo attached to the SAPS Seshego Cluster Family Violence, Child Protection and Sexual Offences (FCS) Unit.
