An unknown man, who attempted to rape a frail 80-year-old granny, learned the lesson of his life last Saturday night.

The granny, Ms Tsatsawana Ntsemi, lives alone at Madobi Village near Vuwani. It seems that the man took advantage of the fact that the old woman lives alone in the house. According to her, it was about midnight when she heard a loud noise at one of the windows of her house. Shortly thereafter, she realized that somebody had broken the window.

Ms Ntsemi says the unknown man gained access to her house through the broken window. She tried to call for help, but nobody could hear her, she said. She added that when he approached her, he told her that he would not hurt her and that "he only wanted to sleep with me".

She said the man took off his clothes and approached her, but she decided that she would not allow him to rape her. "When he was close enough, I grabbed his private parts and started pulling hard," said old granny. "I have never seen such a big organ; it was as big as a pole!"

To her amazement, the man started to cry, as she pulled his private parts in different directions and also squeezed them, until the man ran away in pain. He left behind his T-shirt. "I know wherever he is now, he is in great agony," said the granny. She emphasized that it was just a warning to the man. "If he comes again, I will pull it off!" said the angry granny.

At the time of going to press, the matter had not yet been reported to the police.
