According to the Provincial police spokesperson, Sergeant Wesley Twigg, Nomga was linked to the rape of his victim in May 2004 by DNA.

He said ”the four-year-old victim was on her way to crèche when he approached her and picked her up along the road”.

He then took the victim into a bush where he brutally assaulted her and raped her.

The Mossel Bay Advertiser reported that Nomga, who is serving a 30-year prison sentence for raping women and children in the Mossel Bay area in 2015, broke the jaw of the child.

After Nomga was linked to the 2015 rapes by DNA, his DNA, which was now in the system was a positive match to the DNA found on the little girl in 2004.

The court also ordered Nomga’s name be added to the Sexual Offences Registry.

Police Management in the Western Cape commended the investigating officer and prosecuting team to ensure that the victim gets justice.
