An Atteridgeville woman was sentenced to three years' imprisonment after she falsely accused a man of rape, police said on Monday.
Police spokesman Inspector Daniel Mavimbela said the accused man had already spent eight months in custody after bail was denied.
The 25-year-old woman had falsely accused a 42-year-old man of rape after her uncle found she had had sex with the man.
During sentencing, Magistrate Pierre Laurens told the woman she had put the man through shame through her false accusation.
