This study provides an overview of available literature on the prevalence and incidence of rape in\&nbsp;South Africa, the response of the criminal justice system to such crimes and the characteristics of\&nbsp;those who commit rape.\&nbsp;There are indeed various studies of rape in South Africa from which rape statistics may be\&nbsp;extracted, but none of these studies were specifically designed to measure the prevalence and/or\&nbsp;incidence of this crime. These studies, although approached from different perspectives and\&nbsp;using diverse methods, come up with roughly similar patterns or trends as summarised below.\&nbsp;Prevalence refers to how many cases there are, altogether, at a given point in time, for example,\&nbsp;how many people there are in any country on the day of a population census. Incidence, on the\&nbsp;other hand,refers to the number of cases over a specified time period, for example, the number of\&nbsp;children per 100 000 of the population thatwere born in a given year.},
