Updated | By Noxolo Miya
A northern KZN man has been
jailed for raping a relative's girlfriend.

The NPA in the province says Zenzele Buthelezi attacked the 26-year-old woman in 2020 after hitting her on the head with an axe.
The Madadeni Regional Court has sentenced the 46-year-old man to life imprisonment.
"He told her that she needs to repay him for all that his relative does for her. He continued to assault and strangle her causing her to sustain multiple injuries on her body,” says KZN NPA spokesperson Natasha Kara.
