A 43-year-old man who fled from Osindisweni Hospital in Verulam following his apprehension for the rape of his stepdaughter was rearrested by members of Reaction Unit South Africa in Phoenix a short while ago.
Reaction Officers were dispatched to a business after staff recognised the suspect from a post on this Facebook page where he was circulated as being sought after. Upon arrival, Officers found the alleged rapists severely assaulted by an angry mob. He was placed under arrest and is currently detained at the Verulam SAPS.
The suspect was apprehended by the community on Neptune Drive yesterday after it was established that he had been raping his 10-year-old stepdaughter over a period of 5 years. Residents assaulted the man and forcefully entered his house where they recovered several sex toys which were being used on the child. He was hospitalised for the injuries that he sustained during the assault.
He fled from a hospital last night and was rearrested by Reaction Officers in Phoenix a short while ago.
