On Saturday morning a 30-year-old man has been arrested in connection with the alleged murder and rape of a two year old Valhalla Park girl.

“The suspect is alleged to have fetched 2 year old Randaline Fortune from her aunt’s home, on Thursday,” says police spokesperson Senior Superintend, Billy Jones.

According to Jones the suspect returned the little girl, who’d been wrapped in a blanket, to her parents later the evening, saying she wasn’t feeling well.

Family members rushed her to hospital where she was declared dead upon arrival.

Jones says the suspect was apprehended at Cape Town Airport Industria.

“He is scheduled to appear in Bishop Lavis Magistrate’s court on Monday on charges of murder and rape,” Jones elaborate.
