Wearing black to lament the rate of rape in <br />South Africa, I wear black to lament the lack <br />of restraint in the media and to commemorate <br />the sad death of Anene in the Western Cape <br /> <br />What a painful experience dying in this violent <br />way, feeling sorry for the rapist who killed her, <br />wondering what pain in him drove him to hand <br />on the pain to a seventeen-year old girl <br /> <br />Life imprisonment cannot obliterate the crime or <br />avenge Anene's death, cannot help the murderer, <br />living with memories of his own spiritual mutilation <br />and the scene of his attack on helpless Anene <br /> <br />Her death symbolises the spiral of murder
