Case 213

The Noordhoek ‘Ripper Rapists’

*** Content Warning: extreme violence, sexual assault ***

It was around 2:30 am on Sunday, December 18 1994, when a group of friends stumbled across the bloody and brutalised body of a young woman, lying in the middle of a road in Gqeberha, South Africa. She was the latest victim of Frans Du Toit and Theuns Kruger; two men who the press would come to dub The Noordhoek ‘Ripper Rapists’. 

In 1994, the pair violently attacked multiple women in the city of Gqeberha, then known as Port Elizabeth. But everything changed when they abducted 27-year-old Alison Botha.
