Finally, justice took its course

In 2018, there was a case of a young woman from Umlalazi here at Eshowe who was caught raping a 10-year-old boy during a function at the boy’s house. The case took long to be settled, however last week, the accused young woman was given a sentence and we are happy as a community that justice has taken its course. However, the majority of mothers in the area are now hesitant to hire nannies due to the fear of abuse of their children. A small survey I conducted with men on who took away their virginity mostly pointed out to nannies and such issues happen, however some boys are shy to report such cases.
