The Nicholas Ninow Rape Case and Trial

So he gets max sentence of 15 years when he is eligible for parole.

Welcome to SA justice system. This is why criminals rule in this country.

Three counts. Life plus 5 years plus 5 years (one to run concurrently) so technically it’s 20 before the possibility of parole.
 
The only sentence that could be given.
He will and is in a single cell for his safety.
Hopefully they slip up somewhere.......
 
I'm going to have an unpopular position but that sentence is way too harsh taking in context our justice system. There are people who have committed murders and are back on the streets in 5 years.

It all likelihood this guy is going to be out in less than a decade due to prison overcrowding.... Assuming he survives

Quickly read through the sentencing, didn't see anything about explosive castration. Is that me miss reading or an oversight on the judge' part?
 
So Mr Ninow can now lube up because he is becoming someones biatch in prison.

If previous patterns of bias are repeated he will probably get a few years tacked on and serve full term, just the way it is.

I read a book where warders used to take a single cell prisoner to another prisoner's cell "to watch TV". It the book by J Steinberg called The Numbers. Guy apparently would always spend days crying following these TV watching sessions, he was a political prisoner who was supposed to be segregated but warders felt he shouldn't be deprived of a chance to watch TV with this other guy.
 
Yesterday I saw all these newspaper ads on the street poles saying "Life for Ninow" My first thought was, you've used the wrong word, you should all be baying for death for this piece of excrement.

Just because the system is wrong doesn't mean you should pander to it.

No, you should be calling out the other sentences as too lenient, not this one as too harsh.

Rape gets a life sentence while murder and some robberies get only a few years. It does look like our legal system singles it out while not taking on a whole seriously.
