South Africa's political party and member of the government of Unity, the Democratic Alliance, has raised concerns regarding the high number of unresolved sexual offences cases without being finalized.

If one breaks the numbers down, approximately 974 cases of rape and sexual assault are closed without result every month.  

This means that an average of about 32 victims of rape and sexual assault lose a chance at obtaining justice every day.

Lulu Gaboo spoke to the Democratic Alliance Member of Parliament and the party's Deputy Spokesperson on Police, Lisa Schickerling.
