Abducted woman in 14-hour rape ordeal

A traumatised woman has told of a night of terror as she was abducted, held hostage and gang-raped for hours by a group of men in a sports clubhouse, while slipping in and out of consciousness.

The 29-year-old victim’s horrific 14-hour rape ordeal, during which she was tied up and gagged, has left her so badly battered and in such a state of shock that she can barely recall the savage attack.

The woman – whose identity cannot be revealed due to the nature of the crime – was abducted and a gun put to her head while she was walking down Highfield Road in Port Elizabeth at about 6pm on Monday.

An unknown number of assailants covered her head with a blanket and forced her into a nearby vehicle.

The gang then drove the woman to a rundown football clubhouse in Gelvan Park, Schauderville, 2km away, at the corner Olympia streets.

In an interview yesterday, the distraught victim cried uncontrollably.

She was abducted after storming out a house after an altercation with her older sister shortly before 6pm.

“I went to walk and clear my head. I was walking towards 4th Avenue in Highfield Road, when someone put a gun to my head from behind. They put something over my head so I couldn’t see anything pulled of Amazon and me into some vehicle. “I could feel the gun. “They took me to a place where they put a sock in my mouth and tied my hands and legs together. I don’t know how many of them there were. They raped me for hours. I was in and out of consciousness the whole time.
