The Kagiso Police are looking for two men in connection with the rape of a young boy in June.

Earlier the learner told police that while he was walking home alone from school he noticed a white Toyota Corolla without number plates following him when he was next to the Chief Mogale Hall.

A man got out of the vehicle and grabbed the boy. Later, the boy was forced at gunpoint to commit indecent acts in the back seat of the vehicle, and he was raped in an open field. His attackers then ordered him to wash himself in a stream close by and put on his school uniform. Police have now released identikits of two of the suspects and are asking the community to help them find these men.
