Facts of the case.
This is a case involving a number of households who were robbed of their personal
belongings, occupants were attacked and a number of women was raped. The
youngest victim of these crimes was 14 years old and another victim was a woman
visibly pregnant. This did not deter a group from committing these crimes. This matter
was brought to the High court on a charge of common purpose doctrine. The court had
to deal with the application concerning the proper application of the doctrine of common
purpose to the common law crime of rape. 1 The applicants’ challenge was that under
the common law, the crime of rape is an instrumentality offence which, by its nature,
can only be committed by a male using his own genitalia, and not by an individual who
is merely present when the offence is committed and by his conduct (through his
association or active participation) either promotes, encourages or facilitates the
successful commission of the offence. The High Court of South Africa, Gauteng
Division, Johannesburg, disagreed] with the applicants’ argument and convicted them
together with the other co-accused of various charges, including the common law crime
of rape on the basis of the application of the doctrine.
