Uitenhage - Half of a man's ear has been cut off and his teenage girlfriend was raped repeatedly by a gang in an open field.
Inspector Marianette Olivier says both have been admitted to hospital in a serious condition after suffering hours of hell.
She says the couple were on their way home to Rosedale about 01:00 on Sunday morning when they were accosted in a field by three men and two women.
The 17-year-old girl was throttled and hit so badly in the face that both eyes are swollen shut. The gang tortured her friend and chopped off a portion of his ear.
No one has been arrested yet.
