The source said the man broke into the elderly woman’s house through the tattered door at around 1am on Christmas Eve and attempted to rape the defenceless gogo. He said in the process, a fierce fight ensued and the man, who saw that the elderly woman was overpowering him, took a dish with urine and splashed it on her face before grabbing her and threw her on the bed. “He then raped her and later bolted out of the house.” The source said during the confrontation, neighbours heard the woman shouting for help three times but thought that it was drunk people from the neighbouring bars as it was Christmas Eve. Thereafter, the source said luckily, the elderly woman managed to crawl from her house to one of the nearest neighbours to seek help and she was taken to the police station where a statement was recorded before she was rushed to the hospital. He said during questioning by the police, the neighbours mentioned a prime suspect to the matter and the officers handling the case carried out an investigations with the aim of bringing the suspect to book.
