South Africans furious after SABC interviewed Nicholas Ninow’s mother

Nicholas Ninow interview

South Africans were left fuming on Sunday after the SABC aired an interview with the mother of convicted rapist Nicholas Ninow.

Ninow was last year accused of raping a seven-year-old girl in a Dros bathroom and later pleaded guilty to the crime.

In the interview, Ninow’s mother defends her son’s serious crimes by claiming that he is “is not a rapist” and simply “made a mistake”.

South Africa, however, found the interview insulting, with many agreeing that it made the rapist look like a victim.

The interview continues to trend on Twitter as South Africans call for the SABC to take it down.
