Johannesburg - Two women have been raped, then sodomised with umbrellas in separate incidents in Mpumalanga, police said.
A 27-year-old woman told police a man attacked her near the Delmas municipality buildings on Monday, said Inspector Graham Grimsdell.
"The man dragged her to an open veld and allegedly raped her. After that he took her umbrella and inserted it into her anus."
Later that day, a 50-year-old woman told police she had been attacked by two men in Delmas.
"They forced her down and raped her. When they were done they took her umbrella and inserted it into her anus," said Grimsdell.
Police were investigating whether the crimes were related, he said. No arrests had been made.
