The nine-month-old baby girl from Kimberley in the Northern Cape who survived a gang rape has undergone a full hysterectomy and will require further surgery to repair intestinal damage, a hospital spokesperson said on Friday.

The Louisville baby was raped, allegedly by six Upington men last weekend after she was left unattended by her 16-year-old mother.

"Psychologically we do not know what the impact of her ordeal will be, but she is smiling at all the attention she is getting from all the hospital personnel. She had undergone a full hysterectomy and she suffered extensive damage to her colon and anus as well.

"There will be several more operations to repair her intestines," the spokeswoman said.

The six men, aged between 22 and 66, appeared in the Kimberley magistrate's court on charges of rape and indecent assault on Monday.

Kimberley police are still trying to confirm the rape of a three-year-old girl, allegedly by her grandfather, police Inspector Chantel Manuel said on Friday.

The girl was also admitted to the hospital earlier this week and was expected to undergo surgery on Monday.

In the eastern Free State two men from Tweeling appeared in court on Thursday after allegedly raping their 14-month-old niece on Tuesday. The girl also underwent surgery to repair internal damage and is recovering at home.

On Friday police in the Northern Province reported that a four-year-old girl from the former Venda had died of injuries she sustained four months ago when she was raped, allegedly by her 35-year-old father, at her home at Tshirolwe.

She died in the Mankweng Hospital near Pietersburg on Wednesday, Captain Ailwei Mushavhanamadi said.

The man is to appear in court on December 28 on a charge of rape and murder.

Meanwhile, the African National Congress Women's League and the ANC Women's Caucus on Friday called on the country's courts to implement a minimum sentence which provided life sentences for men who raped children and babies knowing they (the men) were HIV-positive.

ANC caucus chairperson Lulu Xingwana said the superstition that HIV/Aids could be cured by raping babies, children and virgins was an "ignorant, unfounded and perverse belief".

"It is horrifying to learn that adult family members including fathers are amongst those alleged to have committee these atrocities ...mostly the alleged rapes are committed by fathers, brothers, sons, grandfathers and uncles whom they look to for care and protection."

She said these atrocities were linked to the abuse of alcohol and drugs, beliefs that women were sub-human and to superstitions surrounding HIV/Aids.

Police earlier this week said that in the 18 months since January 2000 almost 32 000 reports of child rape and sexual attacks on children under the age of 18 occurred countrywide.

They were NOT " slime ", and IF you knew history, and some facts, you just MIGHT have a better idea about what you are talking about. For the most part, the Boers , after THE LONG TREK , settled land that NO ONE even lived on , went through. They turned that into a bountiful, CIVILIZED country,that woud NEVER have been made fertle, ueful, and beauiful without them.

You are being racist , and I , for one, am NOT going to allow you to get away with that.

Hey, where is the respect for another foreign culture that is of course superior to American culture by virtue of it's quaint native customs? We need to ship a few million of them here so they can share in the American dream, what ever that use to be, and we can avail ourselves of the pleasure of their company and all the benifits that their culture can bring to the American portrait.

OH my God....just take them all out and shoot them.

vile creatures. UNBELIEVABLE.

This is nothing new. I read that India has the same problem. They have the same belief there, that sex with a child will cure a man of Aids or syphilis. Why a child? Because that way the perp is assured that a young child is disease-free.

[The Right Stuff]

The roots of AIDS in Africa are found in the BEHAVIOR of Africans and not the failures of the west.***

Amen to that. And, we can add that the blinders the PC Left has on in this country have exacerbated the AIDS crisis one million fold. Shouldn't someone be in Africa preaching against this heinous behavior? Shouldn't health pros be debunking these absurd myths?

South Africa used to be a civilized country - before most of the world was convinced that anything was better than a predominantly white Christian government - including and especially Communist outright animals. Boy, the country is sure better off now, isn't it?

The "natives" moved in after the Christian settlers had started that bounty, and they *benefitted* from their success! I'm so sick of the reverse racism. There wouldn't *be* a South Africa if there were no Christian settlers to steal it from! And there was nothing wrong with separating themselves with people who *acted like animals*! And this is separate from racial issues, but involves *behavior and culture.*

No. the women, in South Africa still have sexual congress with infected men, and they are infected as well. The men rape children, in the superticious belief that that will cure them. They also visit what we would call witch doctors, who can't cure them either, but they have been told that the " whiteman's " medicine won't cure them.

Oh my God....Jesus,help us....

No arguement there. In fact, I think you're absolutely right. However, Mr. nopardons has me confused with someone else, and has been putting words in my mouth.

What on earth is wrong with you ? Just happy to disseminate propganda ? South Africa does NOT have outrageously strict gun laws. As a matter of fact, the Boers / Africaners all not only own guns, but are probably better shots than most American guh owners ; including the women. Since the police no longer do much of anything, it is the ONLY way that mosst whites can and do protect themselves.

IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT, DON'T POST !

Look, you are absolutely, positively, 100 % WRONG ! Most of this child rape is because the blacks DO believe that sexual congress with a child / virgin cures HIV/AIDS. There are probably some pedophiles thrown into the mix ; however, the vast majority ( probably 99 % of the child rapes ) are due to the believed cucrative power of the act. This is a well known FACT, in South Africa. No matter what you surmise / assume abot this, you are dead WRONG !!!!!!!!

Are you an expert on South Africa ? Have you ever lived there ? Have you even ever been there ? Do you know anyone who lives there ? WHERE ARE YOU GETTING YOUR NONFACTUAL STATEMENT FROM ?

[nopardons]

Go ahead, keep posting falsehoods. LOL I'm willing to bet that many of the males, who raped those children are CHRISTIANS ! Many blacks , in South Africa were taught all about Christianity and became Christians, long before your great, great, great, grandparents were born.

[nopardons]

Thank you ! Facts seem to be in short supply, from some of these posters.

The Boers were between the Zulus and another tribe, at first. The Zulus went to war with them, and so, they went on the historic " LONG TREK " , and settled lands which NO blacks had ever lived on, nor even wandered through often . That is a FACT ! They took unclaimed, unowned, inhospitable, unoccupied land, and made it into a civilized and fertle land ; for the first time in the history of mankind. The racists and ill educated people need to know what the truth is, and stop spewing their " feelings ", instead of factual, easily proved history.

Without the Boer settlers, the territory known as South Africa, would still be a region of disparate peoples waring with each other, owning or being slaves, and in the stone age . Unfortunately, with first Mandela, and now Mbeki and the ANC in charge, it is headig that way ... RAPIDLY !

[robnoel]

Sorry buddy but ...gun control in SA is what most Americans fear today...registration...been that way for decades...now its a lot worse... there are also limits on what you can own and amount of ammo you can buy at anyone time.....as for Christian thing ....most Africans learn about it but few practice it

[nopardons]

I am not a " MR " , and I replied to your post #53, wherein you wrote that the " DUTCH WERE DRIVEN OT OF SOUTH AFRICA".Oh really ? When ? You mean to tell me that my Africaner relatives are NOT living in South Africa today ? That it's all a figment of my imagiation ? That my daughter never went to South Africa to meet with her now in-laws ? That the family did NOT come to the states for her wedding, from South Africa, where the family has lived for well over 300 years ?

Go reread your post .

Your post # 54, sorry about the misnumbered previous post.
