Nontenjwa REASONS FOR JUDGMENT _________________________________________________________ KGOELE J [1] The appellant was convicted in the Regional Court Division of North West held at Itsoseng on a charge of rape and sentenced to Life Imprisonment. Leave to appeal against his conviction and sentence was refused by the trial Court and he successfully petitioned this Court, hence this appeal. [2] The appeal was heard by this Court on the 11th May 2018 and the following Order was granted:- “1. The appeal against both conviction and sentence is upheld; 2. The immediate release of the appellant be and is hereby ordered; 3. Reasons will follow”. [3] The reasons follow hereunder. [4] The salient facts of this matter were that the appellant was charged with rape of the complainant, R S, a 12 year old girl at the time of the incident. It was alleged in the charge sheet that the 2 rape took place on several occasions in 2007, but the dates thereof were not given. [5] The State led evidence of three witnesses. The complainant, who was a single witness in as far as the rape is concerned, described how appellant, who was used to visit their place, raped her in a shack at the back of the house on the 23rd June 2007. This was after the appellant had suggested to the complainant’s mother, who was also present at that time, that the complainant accompany him to go and buy some beers. The mother agreed to this request, according to the testimony of the complainant. Whilst they were at the back of the house with the intention to go and buy some beers, the appellant dragged her into the shack which was nearby and raped her. He gave her R10-00 afterwards. According to her explanation, this sexual intercourse took place whilst both were standing. [6] It appears that the rape was, according to the complainant, interrupted by her aunt when she was passing by at the time she was going to the washing line to fetch some clothes. The aunt, who also testified, confirmed that when she passed next to the shack, she saw the complainant and the appellant in the shack. Although she could not see what they were doing in the shack, she decided to quickly run back to the house to call complainant’s mother. When the appellant saw the aunt and the complainant’s mother coming, he ran out of the shack. The appellant was thereafter chased but they could not catch up with him. 3 [7] According to the aunt’s testimony, the complainant could not tell them what happened in the shack when she inquired except to report that the appellant was twisting her hands in the shack. Even though the complainant did not disclose to them that she was raped, she was nonetheless taken to the police station. From her testimony, the complainant did not want to open up regarding the rape allegation up until she threatened the complainant with the fact that the police will choke her if she does not tell them what the appellant did to her. It further appears from the record of proceedings (in the judgment of the Trial Court) that according to the complainant, she reported to her aunt and the police what happened after she chastised her. The record further reveals that it was only at the police station when the complainant was making a statement that she revealed that this was not the first time she was raped by the appellant. She was then taken to the hospital. [8] The medical doctor who examined the complainant testified and indicated that his conclusion was that there were no signs of penetration. He testified that this conclusion was informed by the shape of the hymen, including the fact that there were no physical injuries, no trauma tears and/or lacerations on the genitalia of the complainant. He also indicated that there was some fluid like semen deposited at her vaginal opening. [9] The appellant’s version is to the effect that indeed on the 23rd June 2007, he was at the complainant’s parental home when he was sent to buy liquor. Before he left for the liquor, he called the complainant and requested her to go fetch some empty beer 4 bottles for him. By then, he was standing at the door of the main house and the complainant was in the shack collecting bottles. Whilst he was standing there, the complainant’s aunt and her friends arrived. They made noise at the same time, shouting that he was with the child in the shack. After trying to stop them from shouting at him, he then jumped over the fence, with the intention to go to the next shebeen. They followed him. He denied the allegations that he raped the complainant. During cross- examination, he indicated that the aunt of the complainant forced the complainant to fabricate a story about him raping the complainant because he had terminated the love affair they had and she was jealous about the new girlfriend he was dating. [10] The trial Court rejected his version and convicted him as charged and sentenced him to Life Imprisonment. [11] As a first ground of appeal, the appellant’s legal representative argued that the trial Court had taken it for granted that the child witness understood the nature and import of being admonished and thus failed to conduct an inquiry to establish her ability to distinguish between truth and falsity, which determines whether or not the witness is competent to testify in the first place. Furthermore that, the trial Court failed to establish the witness’ ability to understand the nature and import of the oath or affirmation, which would direct whether the witness should be admonished to speak the truth, instead of taking an oath. He relied on S v Matshivha 2014(1) SACR 29 SCA to support this submission. 5 [12] He further referred this Court to the case of S v Mangoma [2013] ZASCA 205 (unreported SCA Case No 155/13, 2 December 2013) wherein the Court held that it was still required, at the very least, that there be some inquiry into whether the child witness understood the meaning of telling the truth. He contended that the absence of such an inquiry resulted in the inadmissibility of the evidence and a failure of justice. The other authority he relied upon was Geallal Raghubar v The State (148/12) [2012] ZASCA 188( 30 November 2012). [13] In expanding on his proposition, he placed much emphasis on the case of the Director of Public Prosecutions, Transvaal v Minister of Justice and Constitutional Development & Others 2009 (2) SCAR 130 (CC) wherein the following was said at para 166:- “the evidence of a child who does not understand what it means to tell the truth is not reliable. It would undermine the accused right to a fair trial were such evidence to be admitted. To my mind it does not amount to a violation of Section 28(2) to exclude the evidence of such child. The risk of conviction based on unreliable evidence is too great to permit a child who does not understand what it means to speak the truth to testify. This would indeed have serious consequences for the administration of justice.” [14] His conclusion on this aspect is that no reliance can be placed on the evidence of the complainant in this case and as such, the conviction of the appellant cannot stand. 6 [15] The second ground of appeal is to the effect that the State did not prove the guilt of the appellant beyond reasonable doubt in that the element of sexual penetration was not proven by the State. [16] Appellant’s legal representative submitted that the complainant is a child witness and the only witness of the State to testify about the allegation of the actual rape. His argument is that, although the child testified that it was not the first time the appellant had sexual intercourse with her, and further that she felt pains when the appellant penetrated her, the Doctor could not find any signs of sexual penetration, despite the fact that she was examined in less than five hours after the alleged rape. In addition, the medical report does not support or corroborate her evidence that she was sexually violated whether previously or on that day. [17] He submitted further that the evidence of the second State witness did not add value to the complainant’s evidence. Although she claims to have seen the complainant in the shack with the appellant, she did not witness the rape. According to him the problem is exacerbated by the fact that the complainant did not report to her that she was raped. He maintained that it is clear that the complainant was coerced to say that she was raped as threats were made to her about the police choking her if she does not report.

CONFRONTING EDITOR: SHEILA DUTTA ILLICIT TOBACCO BOTSWANA, LESOTHO, AND SOUTH AFRICA 19 BOTSWANA, LESOTHO, AND SOUTH AFRICA An Analysis of Alcohol and Cigarette Prices in Maseru, Gaborone, and Neighboring South African Towns Kirsten van der Zee and Corné van Walbeek1 Chapter Summary The government of Lesotho plans to implement a levy on tobacco and alcohol products. The proposed measure is similar to levies that have been implemented in Botswana in recent years. A concern is the possibility that Lesotho’s new levy may stimulate a significant increase in bootlegging between Lesotho and South Africa. This chapter investigates the presence and possibility of bootlegging between South Africa and Botswana, and South Africa and Lesotho, by describing the differences in cigarette and alcohol prices between Gaborone, Botswana, and the nearby South African towns of Mafikeng and Zeerust, as well as between Maseru, Lesotho, and nearby Ladybrand, South Africa. 1 Economics of Tobacco Control Project, University of Cape Town, South Africa. 551 551 Confronting Illicit Tobacco Trade: A Global Review of Country Experiences An analysis of comparative cigarette price data indicated the following: Gaborone and Mafikeng/Zeerust. Overall, average cigarette prices are significantly higher in Gaborone than in nearby South African towns. The cheapest pack price found in Gaborone was nearly five times the cheapest price identified in South Africa. Maseru and Ladybrand. Cigarette prices differ between Maseru and Ladybrand, but much less than between Gaborone and Mafikeng/Zeerust.

    CA 137/2003 IN THE HIGH COURT OF SOUTH AFRICA (BOPHUTHATSWANA PROVINCIAL DIVISION) In the matter between:- MAHLANGU MAFIKA : Applicant and THE STATE : Respondent APPLICATION MAFIKENG HENDRICKS AJ DATE OF HEARING :22 September 2003 DATE OF JUDGMENT :25 September 2003 COUNSEL FOR APPLICANT :Adv. E.M. Mmolawa COUNSEL FOR RESPONDENT :Adv. M.M. Sono HENDRICKS AJ: This is an appeal against the refusal of bail by the Magistrate in the Regional Court, Mmabatho. The Appellant, who was accused no. 7 - in the court a quo , applied unsuccessfully to be released on bail pending his trial. The initial bail application was heard on the 05th March 2003 and new evidence was led on 10th April 2003, but it was only on the 12th September 2003 (5 months later) that this appeal appeared for the first time before this court. It is indeed regrettable that such a long delay occurred in this matter seeing that bail appeals are urgent and it should be attended to as soon as it is practically possible to do so. The appellant was together with his co-accused arrested at a farm near Ramatlabama, near the border with neighbouring Botswana. It appears from the uncontested evidence that the Appellant happened to be in a Nissan Bakkie together with one of his co-accused, accused no. 4, in the court a quo . Apparently Accused No. 4 was asked by the Appellant to bring building materials from Pretoria to Itsoseng where the Appellant was attending to a building project at the Itsoseng Magistrate Court. According to the Appellant, Accused No.

  • KADITSHWENE: WHAT's in a NAME? Jan C
    [E KADITSHWENE: WHAT'S IN A NAME? Jan C. A. Boeyens and Desmond T. Cole INTRODUCTION It is a little-known fact of history that prior to its destruction during the so- called difaqane in the 1820s, the capital of the main section of the Bahurutshe was probably the largest African town in the South African interior. In 1820 John Campbell, a director of the London Missionary Society, estimated the population of this Batswana town, to which he referred as “Kurreechane”, at either 16 000 or 20 000 (Campbell 1822[i]:277; MSB77[iii]:18). Surprisingly enough, there has been considerable controversy about the correct rendering of the town’s name as well as the location of its stone-walled ruins. As a recent author observes, “Many scholars maintain that Kurreechane is the English corruption of Tswana Kaditshwene; that the capital described by Campbell 170 years ago is the same as that currently being excavated by archaeologists. But there are those who disagree, and believe that Kurreechane is in fact a lost city. A number of reasons underline this contradicting theory. Perhaps the most important is that there is no direct oral evidence linking the two names.” (Hall 1996:15). The controversy about the location of the ruins of the capital is discussed elsewhere (Boeyens 1998:78-93); suffice it to say that a study of contemporary descriptions and sketches of the town, an archaeological survey of Iron Age sites in the Marico, as well as an analysis of the recorded oral traditions of the Bahurutshe, have confirmed beyond doubt that the main complex of the Bahurutshe capital was situated on a hill on the border of the two farms, Kleinfontein (or Olifantspruit) 62 JP and Bloemfontein 63 JP, about 25 km north-east of present-day Zeerust in the North-West Province (see the 1: 50 000 topographical map, 2526AC Mokgola).
