However, it was said the fourth suspect showed some remorse, when he dropped the victim off at her friends house.
“He also gave his jacket to the victim as she was feeling cold.”
Her friends contacted the SAPS and a manhunt was immediately launched to find the four suspects.
The suspects were tracked and arrested, after it was determined that they were pupils at a local school in the Dannhauser area.
All four suspects aged, 16 to 19 years old, appeared at the Dannhauser Magistrate’s Court on charges of kidnapping and rape.
The case was remanded, pending further investigations by the Newcastle FCS Unit.
