ZAA 22-year-old man from Carnarvon, Northern Cape, has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for raping his biological mother while she was asleep. The incident occurred on November 23, 2025, after both the victim and her life partner were under the influence of alcohol and fell asleep. The accused, who had also been drinking, returned home and assaulted his mother without her consent. He fled upon being confronted by the victim, who later reported the crime. DNA evidence linked him to the offense, leading to his guilty plea. The state emphasized the violation of trust and the exploitation of the victim's vulnerability. The accused had previously served time for a dishonesty-related offense and was on parole at the time of the rape. Despite his guilty plea, the court deemed the offense severe and imposed a 20-year sentence, adding the case to the National Register for Sex Offenders.
