Police Officer Impregnates Prisoner.


By Phumzile Mavimbela

A second rape incident has occurred in one of the correctional services in KwaZulu Natal. The Correctional Services has lodged a rape complaint against a male official who allegedly had sex with an inmate. According to correctional services, the inmate was in a vulnerable position, because of the official's position. The official is still undergoing a disciplinary process.

According to eNCA Correctional Services National Commissioner Arthur Fraser has informed Parliament that a police officer has impregnated an awaiting-trial prisoner. “What we discovered in this process is that that police officer collected the remandee and that that sexual act happened outside our facility," Fraser said.

"We have engaged with SAPS and they are busy with disciplinary matters in this regard. I thought we had to reflect on this so you don’t see it on social media later and think we have not registered it with the committee.

"We are following that up, but we want a clear protocol on how we deal, and who can collect. So that protocol we are busy with."
