A 40 year old man has been arrested for allegedly assaulting and raping a 30 year old Gugulethu woman.
Millicent Gaika who is a lesbian was repeatedly raped for five hours by the suspect.
Gaika says the suspect told her he wanted to "turn her into a woman".
It is alleged that on Friday night Gaika and her friends were walking home after spending the evening at a friend's house in NY1Gugulethu.
As they approached their home the suspect apparently asked the victim for a cigarette. She stayed to smoke with him while her friends walked on.
A few minutes later, the man refused to pass the cigarette to Gaika and walked into his room.
When she followed him he allegedly locked the door. Then he started to rape and strangling her.
The suspect will appear in the Philippi Magistrate's Court on Tuesday facing rape charges.
