The Reiger Park SAPS spokesperson Const Jan Mokwana said that according to information received so far, the girl was late for school, and thus decided to enter the premises through the fence at the back of the school, near the bushes.
“That’s when the boys allegedly dragged her into the bush as she was trying to climb over the fence,” said Mokwana.
The rape is being investigated by the family violence, child protection, and sexual offence (FCS) unit.
This is a developing story, which will be updated as more details emerge.
