The Springs Police are urging people to refrain from opening false cases and wasting the police’s time.
This comes after a woman told police she had been kidnapped and assaulted by a group of men.
Springs police spokesperson Capt Johannes Ramphora says the woman’s partner became concerned after she didn’t come back from getting water outside.

When pressed for more details, it eventually emerged that the woman had gone to a party in Katlehong, without telling her partner.
