Police in South Africa have launched an investigation after a man claimed he was held for three days and repeatedly raped by a trio of women who forced him to down energy drinks.

The 23-year-old claimed his ordeal began when he got into a taxi with young female passengers inside.

During Friday’s journey, the vehicle abruptly changed direction and the man was injected with an unknown substance before passing out.

When he woke up, he was lying in a strange room on a single bed.

Captain Colette Weibach told Times Live: “The female suspects then allegedly forced the man to drink an energy drink‚ before taking turns raping him numerous times a day.”

After three days of assaults, the man said he was eventually dropped off in an open field in Benoni.

Captain Weilbach urged anyone with information, or who had experienced a similar ordeal to come forward.
