A pedophile rapist had his genitals hacked off with a knife before being beaten to death by angry community members after he was caught gang-raping two young girls at gunpoint.
The suspect was one of three men who allegedly raped two teenagers, one of whom was just 14-years-old.
According to investigators, the attack happened in Ivory Park, near Johannesburg, South Africa on Saturday night.
Police officers say the two teen victims were walking through the area when they were confronted by the gang who was armed with a gun and a knife.
The three men then repeatedly raped the pair until a passerby saw what was happening and raised the alarm, News 24 reports.
Then the “tight-knit community” went to work and quickly formed a vigilante group to dish out what the local media is describing as “rough justice.”

A group of locals quickly assembled to rescue the young girls from the attack. The group confronted the three men but two of them managed to escape.
The third man was caught, however, and was castrated with a knife before being killed, officers said.
