A very sad case came before the Johannesburg High Court involving a mother and a lawyer who are accus3d of doing terrible things to two young girls.
These girls, both under 13 years old, were forced into prost!tut!on, and their lives were changed forever in the most heartbreaking way.
The mother is accus3d of forcing them to have s3x with men in exchange for money instead of protecting her daughters.
The girls were not even teenagers; one was just about to turn 13, and the other was only 11 or 12.
On the day of the court appearance, the mother was not alone. She was with a 35-year-old lawyer who, according to the accu_sations, had repeatedly @bus3d one of the girls.
The courtroom was filled with tension as the charges were read out, but unfortunately, the trial had to be postponed because they couldn’t find an interpreter to help with the technical language of the case.
The mother’s name was kept secret to protect her daughters, and the lawyer’s name could only be revealed later.
It was revealed just how serious the situation was. The mother allegedly took her firstborn daughter to different places where men would pay for s3xual experiences. She reportedly used the internet to advertise her daughter’s services. This poor girl had to endure such trauma on a daily basis, often having to meet multiple clients each day, sometimes up to ten.
The court papers told a chilling story. The mother was accused of taking explicit photos and videos of her daughter to help advertise her. Sometimes, the mother even participated with her daughter in s3xual activities with clients. It was a nightmare for the young girl, who just wanted to be a child, not to be forced into such awful situations.

When the girl refused to obey her mother’s orders, she was hurt and verbally abus3d. The thought of a mother harming her own child in such a way is unimaginable. The case sheds light on how trust can be broken in the most painful ways.
The second accus3d, the lawyer, is said to have made his first appointment to have s3x with the girl when she was just 12 years old. Over time, he became increasingly involved with the mother, eventually offering to buy the girl for R160,000 (which is a significant amount of money).
He even gave the mother a down payment and promised to take care of her in exchange for her daughter. This was just another betrayal in a series of devastating events for these innocent girls.
The lawyer reportedly threatened the victim with a gu_n to make her comply with his demands. He moved her from place to place, keeping her locked away for long periods without food or water. This poor girl was treated like an object rather than a human being with rights and feelings.
The mother was also accused of forcing her other daughter to have s3xual encounters for money when she was only 11 or 12 years old. Both the mother and the lawyer face serious charges, including tr@fficking, r@p3, and child po_rn0graphy.
