A pastor from Oudtshoorn has been sentenced to 54 years in prison for a string of charges including the rape of two teenage girls.
The spokesperson for the National Prosecuting Authority Eric Ntabazalila says the pastor cannot be named as the victims are family members.
The rapes happened in 2013 and 2018.
The man was convicted of three counts of rape, three of indecent assault, one of sexual assault and 26 charges of child pornography.
Ntabazalila says throughout the trial the pastor denied that the images he had downloaded were of children but an expert witness testified to the contrary.
He says the pastor also admitted to having a porn addiction.
His name will also be entered in the National Register for Sexual Offenders.
