Mentally disabled woman allegedly raped

A resident of Horizon View, Lizle Jones is traumatized after allegedly witnessing the rape of a woman in broad day light.

According to Jones she was on her way to buy fast food yesterday at 12.15pm  when she passed a small bush on the corner of Reservoir and Finch Street and noticed a man on top of a woman. She thought they were having intercourse and turn her vehicle around but the man fled. She then realized that the woman was raped. The woman was in a daze an unresponsive.

Jones recognised the woman as a mentally disabled homeless woman who is often seen on the street.

When Jones tried to report the case she says she was met with indifference by the officer on duty and she told that there is nothing they (the police) can do.

The record is currently awaiting commentary from Roodepoort police.
