According to The Independent Police Investigative Directorate (Ipid), a police captain was arrested in Worcester on Friday for allegedly raping a woman in his official SAPS vehicle in June of this year.
Spokesperson Moses Dlamini said:
The complainant alleges that on 20 June at about 23.30 she was raped by the suspect who was driving a marked SAPS vehicle while he was on duty. The suspect allegedly threatened to shoot the victim and her son if she reported the matter to anyone which resulted in her not reporting it immediately after the incident.
Since the victim has reported the offense, the 46-year-old man has been arrested.
The Ipid conducted an investigation and decided to arrest the suspect on the same day based on the evidence uncovered.
The man in question is set to appear in the Worcester Magistrate’s Court today.
