High Court upholds triple child rapist's life sentence
Cape Argus
|November 20, 2025
A CHILD rapist’s appeal to overturn a conviction and life sentence was denied by the Western Cape High Court
At the Wynberg Regional Magistrate’s Court, Nicholas van der Schyff was jailed for raping twin sisters and another minor but denied this, maintaining the evidence against him was fabricated.
The children testified regarding events that allegedly occurred in 2015, when the twins were 9 and the friend would have been about 7 years old.
Van der Schyff, who was a friend of the twins’ grandfather, was convicted on a charge of rape, six charges of sexual assault and three charges of exposing or displaying pornography to children after his complainants testified in 2023.
