MANZINI – One would assume the Royal Swaziland Police (RSP) Camps were safe havens, when in fact they are not!


This comes after a domestic worker (23) was allegedly attacked by an unknown man who raped her twice in one night at knife-point in one of the new houses situated at Zakhele Police Camp.
During an inspection of the camp by this reporter, it was discovered that the place was not even properly fenced.


The rape incident happened at about 2am on Saturday while everyone, including her employer was asleep.
Information gathered is that the rapist, who informed the domestic worker that he was a police officer, entered the premises and headed straight to a senior female police officer’s house, which had one of its doors unlocked.
Allegations are that the officer was recently allocated the house without most of its main keys.


Upon gaining entry into the flat, the suspect went to the bedroom used by the domestic helper.
That is when he fought and stripped her.
He is then said to have raped *Sonto while also strangling her and ordering her to stop screaming.


He is said to have threatened to stab and kill her if she did not give into his demands.
While raping her, the suspect informed her that he was a police officer and had come to the complex to check on a friend.
His claim could not be verified as he is currently on the run.


After raping her, the suspect allegedly dragged her outside and headed toward the Zakhele Public Road situated next to the police camp. It is suspected that the man intended to continue raping her at a secluded place not far from the police camp.
“While trying to cross the public road with her, a van approached and someone who was on board shouted his name and asked what he was doing to her.
