A Gauteng man has been sentenced to life imprisonment in the Pretoria Magistrates Court for raping his seven-year-old cousin.
The 27-year-old man from Atteridgeville cannot be named to protect the victim from secondary trauma.
The court heard it was not the first time that the man had raped the young girl.
Previously, he was sentenced to five years imprisonment for raping the girl who was five years old at the time and her 10-year-old sister in 2017.
After he only served two years of his sentence, he was released on parole.
