Lady who was caught raping a boy inside a church have been spotted

SOUTH AFRICA – A 24-year-old foreign national appeared before the Musina Magistrate’s Court is facing a single charge of rape. The case has shocked the border town of Musina, Limpopo, due to the nature of the alleged crime and the vulnerable position of the victim.

Court documents indicate that the assault allegedly occurred at a church-run shelter that provides temporary protection for migrants, homeless families, and other vulnerable individuals. The victim, a child under the age of sixteen, was residing at the facility at the time of the alleged attack.

According to the prosecutor, the accused allegedly exploited her position at the shelter to isolate the child and commit the act. Authorities were alerted after shelter staff noticed signs of distress in the child and reported the situation to the South African Police Service (SAPS).

The accused was taken into custody and has remained detained due to concerns that, as a foreign national, she might abscond before the trial. Magistrate Johanna Pretorius postponed a bail hearing to August 27 to allow for a victim impact assessment and immigration verification process.

The incident has drawn condemnation from community leaders and officials. Lieutenant General Thembi Hadebe, Limpopo Provincial Commissioner, described the crime as “heinous” and emphasized the need for justice.

Local advocacy groups and community representatives have called for stricter vetting procedures for shelter volunteers and residents to prevent exploitation. Child protection services are providing counselling to the victim, while the church shelter has temporarily suspended operations for an internal review.
