Man sentenced for raping boys  | News Article

A Lesotho man is set to serve an effective two life terms behind bars after he was convicted for raping two young boys in 2017 in Bloemspruit, Phase 10, in the Free State.

The Bloemfontein regional court sentenced Lepita Nkota, a cow herder, to two life terms for his crimes against the two boys in October of the said year.

Police spokesperson, Motantsi Makhele, in a statement says the 37-year-old man lured the two, aged 7 and 4 respectively, to bushes where he raped them on different occasions. 

Makhele says the man was apprehended after one of the boys told his friends who then informed elders, which led to the incident being reported to the Bloemspruit police.
