Khaya vrou fears for her life after decision to give rape-accused bail
A KHAYELITSHA rape survivor is fearing for her life after the man accused of abducting and raping her over and over at knifepoint was released on bail.
Siyabonga Zono stands accused of holding Ongeziwe Poni captive in a harrowing 12-hour ordeal on the night of 30 March 2025.
According to the victim’s statement, she was attacked at knifepoint and raped multiple times in separate locations, including a public toilet, an open field, and a shack where she was held overnight, while threatening to kill her if she made a sound.
However, Zono was released on bail following his fifth court appearance at the Khayelitsha Magistrates Court on 28 May.
