Updated | By Nushera Soodyal
The Pietermaritzburg Regional Court has handed a 20-year-old man four life sentences after he pleaded guilty to the rape of four boys aged between four and eight years old.
One of them was his stepbrother. The incidents took place in May 2021 in the Imbali area outside of Pietermaritzburg.
In his plea, the man mentioned that he had been suffering from depression following his break-up with his girlfriend.
He said that he had initially considered suicide but decided to rape the boys instead.
On the day of the incident, the children were playing outside his house when he called them individually into his room and raped them.
