Phiri allegedly raped victims at gunpoint

PUTFONTEIN, Ekurhuleni - A woman whose rape kit has positively linked Sipho Lucas Phiri to the crime says Phiri raped her at gunpoint and dropped her off at work after violating her.

The former Prasa security guard who’s married with children, is accused of inflicting a reign of terror between 2018 and 2023, raping at least 37 women some of who are teenagers.

It's alleged Phiri's modus operandi was to target women coming from taxi ranks or walking in the street.

He’s set to go on trial which has been delayed by his attempt to bar eNCA’s cameras from televising it.

Sensitive viewers are advised that this story contains information of a sexual nature.
