Two police officers and a woman have been arrested in the Free State after extorting R5 000 from the woman's boyfriend, and threatening him with a rape case.
It's alleged that the 33-year-old woman went to the police station at about 03:00 on Saturday with the intention of opening a rape case against her boyfriend.
However, instead of opening the case, the SA Police Services members made an agreement with the woman to have the boyfriend pay R5 000 since they had convinced the lady not to open the case against him.
