West Premier Thandi Modise has called on traditional leaders, politicians
across the political spectrum, pastors, celebrities and sports men to stand up
to be counted in order to give the anti-rape campaign impetus.
Premier Modise
made the plea in condemning the gang rape of a 33 year old hitch hiker by six
men.
Spokesperson
for the premier Lesiba Kgwele said rape
has reached alarming and unacceptable levels and calls for united action
therefore real men need to stand up to be counted against sexual violence which
cuts across race, gender and class.Kgwele adds that the Premier appeals to members of the community who could have witnessed the incident or saw those responsible for the ghastly act to come forward with information that might assist police in their investigations.
