“He woke up and started kissing her and she kissed him back. And he started taking her clothing of (sic) and she kept quite (sic) and did oral sex. He took the condom and put it on his penis and penetrated her. She tried to stop him during the oral sex but he did not stop. She just let it happen as he was stronger than her. She was crying as it was painful. When he finished he got off and held her and told her to sleep on the same day at 12:00.”
The singer recalled travelling to Johannesburg with Sjava in the same car after the rape incident, but added that she has not been herself since then.
Limpopo police spokesman Motlafela Mojapelo confirmed Lady Zamar had opened a case of rape against Sjava. He said investigation has been concluded and referred it to the National Prosecution Authority for a decision on whether to prosecute.
He said;
“We confirm that a case of rape was opened on 2019-11-14 at Lyttleton SAPS in Gauteng province. It was then transferred to Thohoyandou SAPS in Limpopo on 2019-11-22 for further handling as the alleged incident was reportedly committed in Thohoyandou policing precinct.”
Mojapelo also revealed that Sjava was questioned by the police, but was not arrested due to the complexity of the case.
He added;
“The alleged incident reportedly happened on 2017-0909 and the case was only opened after two years and this requires meticulous investigations, as in other cases, to ensure that every piece of information is properly followed up.”
