A 22 year-old woman was allegedly raped by her 54 year-old father in the North West.

The incident allegedly took place on Saturday night while the victim was asleep.

The Rustenberg police have arrested the man.

North West Premier Thandi Modise has condemned the incident in the strongest terms.

Premier’s Spokesperson Lesiba Moses Kgwele said the spate of rape incidents particularly those involving victims that are known to perpetrators have reached unacceptable and alarming proportions and point to moral decay that needs urgent intervention before communities start taking the law into their own hands.

The suspect who is in police custody appeared at the Rustenburg Magistrate Court today.
