Nelson Mandela's Grandson Arrested For Raping 15 Year Old

The grandson of Winnie Mandela and former
President Nelson Mandela appeared in the
Johannesburg Magistrate’s Court on charges of the
rape of a 15-year old girl in Greenside, South
Africa. It’s alleged the teen was raped when she
went to use the rest room in a restaurant and the
boy grabbed and raped her inside one of the
toilets.
The young man, who is in his 20s, cannot be
named until he pleads guilty to the allegation
leveled against him.
According to Daily Sun, the incident happened at a
popular restaurant on Friday, August 14th. The
boy’s grandmother Winnie Madikizela-Mandela’s
bodyguard intimidated the father of the rape victim
when he initially tried to file a criminal charge
against him, according to girl’s family
spokesperson.

“Instead, Winnie’s bodyguard went to
the family pretending to be a cop. The father
was told there was no need to arrest the
suspect but when the father asked to see his
badge, he didn’t have one. It turned out he
had been sent by Winnie” he said.

Meanwhile, Winnie Mandela promised to hand him
over to the police. She also said she will call a
press conference. None of the promises has been
so far kept. “

Just because they have a famous
surname, they think they can get away with
crime. Children can’t just be raped and then
everything is alright. The girl is young and
doesn’t even drink”

the spokesperson added.
Gauteng police spokesman Brigadier Mashadi
Selepe said they are investigating a case of rape
opened on August 14.
