South Africa’s National Prosecuting Authority says the rape, sexual assault and robbery charges against the 14 men have been dropped.
The men were accused of attacking a music crew in Krugersdorp where eight women were gang raped.
The suspects will now be charged for contravening the Immigration Act and they’re expected back in court on November 1, 2022.
The suspects were reportedly acquitted because neither the identity parade nor the DNA tests could link them to the crimes.
Police swooped on the suspects after the eight women were raped at gunpoint and their film crew robbed while they were shooting a music video at a mine dump in West Village, Krugersdorp, in late July.
