A report said that the teen was allegedly raped by the son of the South African leader when she went to use the rest room in a restaurant.
It was learnt that the young man, who is in his 20s, cannot be named until he pleads guilty to the allegation leveled against him.
Daiky Sun reported that the boy’s grandmother Winnie Madikizela-Mandela’s bodyguard intimidated the father of the rape victim when he initially tried to file a criminal charge against him, according to girl’s family spokesperson.
“Instead, Winnie’s bodyguard went to the family pretending to be a cop. The father was told there was no need to arrest the suspect but when the father asked to see his badge, he didn’t have one. It turned out he had been sent by Winnie” he said.
Meanwhile, Winnie Mandela promised to hand him over to the police. She also said she will call a press conference. None of the promises has been so far kept. “
Gauteng police spokesman Brigadier Mashadi Selepe said they are investigating a case of rape opened on August 14.
