Angry residents of a South African township cut off the penis of a man caught raping a five-year-old girl, police said.
The 26-year-old man was in a critical condition in hospital after the assault, which happened on Sunday at Mandela Park in the East Rand township near Johannesburg, Sergeant Zithini Dlamini told Reuters.
The traumatised girl was being treated for her injuries, which were not life-threatening, she said.
No arrests had yet been made. Members of the child's community would not reveal who assaulted the man when several caught him in the act of raping the child after luring her to a shack, she said.
"Nobody is talking. While we condone the community for catching the man, we would encourage people to come to us rather than taking justice into their own hands," she said.
South Africa has one of the highest rates of reported rape in the world.

This is outrageous! He's still alive? There was a time when something like this would have been followed with a proper necklacing. Perhaps they couldn't find a tire.

South Africa has one of the highest rates of reported rape in the world. In one place, they seem to have an idea what to do about it. It could work.

"good, now they should sew it to his forehead so everyone will know."
He'd then be easy to spot, as he'd certainly be a wee-bit cockeyed...

Everyone would point with a look of disgust on their face and say:
"theres the sick dickhead that raped that poor little girl"
It should be customary fo anyone to B slap him too each time he appears in public. I wish this would happen in the USA. Harsh, no im being lenient, I have 2 daughters.

If charges are brought I'll be glad to serve on that jury.

I wonder if they, as a culture, value their children more than we value ours.

I bet there's not another racpe there period. If some scumbag is so desperate, maybe gettign rid of his reason would 'rehabilitate' him. sAy, why don't we do this to ALL childMolestters etc. then we can put them back into society rather then letting them back in now with everything intact.

"Nobody is talking. While we condone the community for catching the man, we would encourage people to come to us rather than taking justice into their own hands," she said. Yeah, let me guess. They are supposed to lock him in a room and call 911.
