Albert Justice Morake, a
35-year-old serial rapist has been convicted and jailed for 1,535 years
including 30 life terms by a South African court for raping 29 women
over a period of five years.
Morake, popularly known
as 'Morake of Ivory Park, Midrand' began his kidnapping and rape spree
in 2007 by targeting couples either in the street or in their cars.
He was sentenced by the
Johannesburg High Court on Friday to 1,535 years of imprisonment
including 30 life terms for 30 counts of rape, 360 years for robbery and
several hundred more for crimes including attempted murder, kidnapping
and robbery. The sentences will run concurrently.
According to Times
Live, Morake had pleaded not guilty to 175 charges, including 30 of
rape, 41 of kidnapping and 24 of robbery among others. However, he was
found guilty on 144 counts.
Judge Rean Strydom said Morake had not shown remorse and had persisted in denying his involvement in the crimes.
"He had been arrogant in
that he provided his victims with advice on how to protect themselves
from rape in the future," the judge said.
"He had acted with premeditation. He came prepared [to commit the crimes] and was always in control," said Strydom.
Most of
Morake's traumatized victims who were present in court to testify
against him, were jubilant when he was sentenced for 1,535 years.
Nigerian rapists be warned....you all are next....fools!
...They should flog them,strip them naked for all to see their manhood before they are jailed.
