A 12-year-old girl has been raped and strangled to death allegedly by a herdsman at Bhaziya village outside Mthatha in the Eastern Cape.

Emihle Tukani was a member of young girls and boys that undergo virginity testing at a young age to promote abstinence from sexual activities.

The victim was sent by her grandmother to fetch R10 from the man. Her grandmother was going to use the money as a taxi fare to get her old age social grant. Virginity Testing Organisation Secretary Liziwe Langa has expressed shock about the brutal killing of Emihle Tukani. “We are very sad about what is happening in our communities. Men rape young girls, we are asking government to help us in securing our young girls. We also ask the government to help our children in this, we are asking the government to act against this thing of rape. We are very sad about this, we are very angry about what is happening in our communities,” says Langa.

“I am saddened about what has happened to this 12-year-old girl. I understand that by joining Inkciyo at a young age, she was trying to shape her own life so that she does not participate in any sexual activities, yet she was subjected to a very painful experience of a 47-year-old forcing himself into having sexual intercourse with this young angel. I appeal to men once again to refrain from this, all these acts of violence,” says Petros Majola, Khula Community Development Programme Director.

Since it is well scripted who did this,there is one option going forward and that is:they should quickly be brought to justice or justice will be brought to them. We are so sick and tired of reading about the heinous atrocities upon the innocent in this country.Enough is Enough.
