‎A 20-year-old woman of Macraymond Township in Kalomo has allegedly been robbed and gang raped by eight unknown men as she made her way home with her husband after a drinking outing.
‎
‎The incident is reported to have occurred in the early hours of today, 22 November 2025, around 02:00 hours at the Kalomo Urban Clinic lay-by.
‎
‎Southern Province Police Commanding Officer Moono Namalongo says the victim and her 22-year-old husband had gone out for drinks at Kalomo Town Centre around 22:00 hours on November 21, 2025.
‎
‎Mr. Namalongo explains that the couple later decided to return home on foot, but upon reaching the Kalomo Urban Clinic lay-by, they were reportedly confronted by eight unknown men who demanded their valuables.
‎
‎He says when they resisted, the suspects began assaulting them, during which the husband managed to escape, leaving the woman behind.

‎Mr. Namalongo further explains that the suspects dragged the victim into nearby bushes along a footpath where she was allegedly robbed and sexually assaulted.
‎
‎He adds that the attackers reportedly stole two mobile phones, an Infinix and a Tecno valued at K4,000 before fleeing the scene.
‎
‎Mr. Namalongo says the victim later managed to make her way home and at around 10:30 hours sought medical attention at Kalomo Urban Clinic, where she was advised to report the matter to the police.
‎
‎He states that police officers who visited the scene observed signs of struggle in the grass adding that no arrests or recoveries have been made so far.

‎Mr. Namalongo says investigations have since been launched to bring the perpetrators to justice.
