Updated | By Lauren Beukes
A child rapist has been put behind bars for repeatedly raping his 10-year-old neighbour.
The KZN National Prosecuting Authority's Natasha Kara says the man was sentenced to life by the Ntuzuma Regional Court on Friday.
Kara says suspicions were raised when the child's teachers noticed a change in her behaviour and academic performance.

"The man would even go to school, take the child away early under false pretences."
