A 41 year old man is expected to appear in the Mitchell’s Plain Magistrate’s court this morning for allegedly abducting two Mitchell’s Plain children and raping the girl.

Police say on Saturday night together with neighbouring watch members they probe into the bushes near the Westgate Mall, searching for the 8 year old boy after a 12 year old girl was found assaulted and raped allegedly by the suspect on the bushes.

Warrant Officer Ian Williams says the boy was also harmed.

“He was found later the evening with his hands and feet tied. He had a wound to his head and was treated at the scene before being taken to a nearby hospital,” said Williams.

The suspect was arrested on the same night and charged with abduction and rape.
