Johannesburg - He gave her a condom and instructed her to open it. Then he told her to remove her underwear, after which he raped her.

But the 17-year-old teenager doesn’t remember whether her rapist did put on the condom.

She was also instructed to apply Vaseline and rub it on his penis. The accused had earlier used the same Vaseline - mixed with a black substance - which he applied to her forehead and the sides of her face.

Meanwhile, her friend was told to lie down on her side and sleep throughout it all.

She was 14 when all this happened and apparently one of many victims of alleged serial rapist Peter Dashboy Khoza.

On Thursday, she told the high court sitting in Palm Ridge how Khoza had allegedly kidnapped her and her friend around 2pm on May 6, 2012. They were released at 5am the next day.

 

Khoza, 40, pleaded not guilty to the 152 charges he is facing, among them rape, sexual assault, kidnapping, assault with the intent to do grievous bodily harm, theft and attempting to commit a sexual offence.

The teenager said she and her friends were approached by Khoza while playing on the streets in Slovo informal settlement near Eldorado Park.

He asked them where he could get milk and requested that they come with him.

It was about 5pm and it was getting dark when the man lured them to an isolated area.

She said they made a fire while they sat.

The court heard that the man produced a knife and condoms, instructing them to lie down before raping one of the girls twice.

The next morning, their attacker left them near the freeway, telling them he was going to relieve himself.

While the two were walking, police vehicles drove past and stopped.

Their mothers were inside. They had been searching for the pair throughout the night. The two were taken to the police station and later to a clinic to be examined. \

The trial continues.
