arrested the instructor on Sunday.
‘’It is alleged that on 31 March 2024, a police instructor
at a Phillipi Police Training Academy in the Western Cape called a female
police trainee to his office and she went to the office after she had several
excuses in the past for not going to his office,’’ said Phaladi
Shuping, IPID spokesperson.
‘’It is alleged that the instructor locked the door once
the complainant was inside, and raped her. She was allowed to leave after the
alleged rape, but she did not report the incident immediately,’’ he added.
Shuping says the alleged victim only reported the incident
few days later and the case was reported to IPID for investigations.
The case was postponed to 2 May 2024 for a formal bail
application.
