Three dogs were put down after South African villagers caught a 12-year-old girl having sex with one of them. The SPCA confirmed that all three dogs were put down because they'd been beaten so badly by angry villagers.
Police had asked the SPCA to collect the dogs after villagers threatened to kill the dogs themselves to protect their daughters. Police spokesperson Moatshe Ngoepe reported that the incident began as a rumour. "Villagers heard that the young girl always had sex with three male dogs, so they lay in wait to catch her in the act," he said. Some people witnessed at least one dog and the girl going behind her family's house last week and "surprised" them.
Police were called and arrested the child for bestiality. She appeared before the magistrate's court last Wednesday and the magistrate ordered that she be sent to a psychologist. "We are expecting the psychologist's report soon," Ngoepe said. Head of the Bethesda Christian Church believes demons are to blame and said only prayer and fasting would help the girl.
Meanwhile, bestiality charges were provisionally withdrawn against a 19-year-old man from Mphakati near Malamulele last Tuesday. He'd been accused of having sex with a goat. Two years ago, another Limpopo man was jailed to 18 years for having sex with a goat in October 2002. He'd argued that he abstained from sex with humans because he was afraid of contracting HIV/Aids. Quite the plan. That same year a Bushbuckridge man committed suicide after he was caught having sex with a hen that later died. A young Botswana man who stayed in Limpopo was also accused of having sex with a donkey and littering the ground around it with condoms. In October 2003, another man was jailed for 10 months after villagers caught him with two goats in Xihosana village near Malamulele.
