    The story smells a rate. Could this not be a relationship gone sour? I can imagine a university student being raped by a colleague (in some Hostle room, on Campus) and do nothing about the rape – no report to police. Then go back to the same room or allow the male into the same room on another occasion (I assume complainant is a female who could not be sharing the room with a male) & get raped for the second time. Then only after the 2nd rape, on an unknown day/date, she saw it fit to report the accused. Uuuuuuummmmmm yaaaa zvinowanikwa hazvo. But handizvitarisiri from a University student – given level of knowledge & age of the complainant. Kusatozikanwa kwemaDates acho kunotoratidza kuti pazvaiitika the complainant did care much about the incidents, just to say the least; & did not consider them worth reporting to police or even anyone. Clearly the reporting is was just an after thought. So what triggered it; the “Rape” or simply some sour grapes? Vanhu kana vabvumirana vakaita zvavanopita ngavasati kana vorambana voita zvekuda kupfidzisana nekugadzirana nyaya dzakawoma-woma.That is bad! Kana denga ririko hokoyo; nemazavirira emoto akarebwa mubhaibheri.
