A woman from the Makause informal settlement recently ran to the Primrose Police Station for protection, after an alleged attack by her 28-year-old boyfriend.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe complainant alleged that she was sitting outside her shack with a friend when her boyfriend, against whom she has a protection order, arrived and went into her shack,\u201d explained Sgt Styles Maome, communications officer for the Primrose police.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

The woman asked him what he was doing in her home, but he refused to answer.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe claims that, after she questioned him, he turned around and began to assault her,\u201d Maome said.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

Officers were able to trace the suspect and he was arrested and charged with domestic violence and violating a protection order.<\/p>\n

He has since appeared in the Germiston Magistrates Court, where the case was postponed for trial.<\/p>\n
