Matshaya had been out on parole when he went on his latest rape spree. He is accused of targeting women who were walking alone and young girls by laying and waiting in the open veld between 2016 and 2019.
He would accost his victims, threaten them with a firearm or a knife, and drag them into the bush before raping them. Matshaya has been found guilty on six rape charges and one of kidnapping. The state says that he has no respect for women and the law.
The state wants him classified as a pedophile for raping the four 15-year old school girls.
