The woman said that she was at her home sleeping; her son was also in the house at the time.
She noticed a suspect entered her room and he had a torch. When she screamed he told her to shut up or he would kill her son.
He asked the woman for money and she replied that she does not have money in the home. He then dragged her to the lounge and he jumped out of the window.
When he was on the ground he ordered her to jump, she was not sure if he had a firearm so she jumped.
He dragged her to the bushes near Voortrekker Road, pushed her down onto the ground and raped her.
