A TRAUMATISED mum has described how she was brutally raped in front of her three kids after a gunmen broke into their farm in South Africa.
Brave Nicky, 45, says she endured a four-hour "living nightmare" as Sebenzile Simane also molested her daughter and threatened to kill her son in March last year.

The evil former farm worker felt he had been wronged by her husband Heine, 44, and shot his way on to the property determined to “chop him into pieces”, tying up his family and stealing their money.
He has now been sentenced to two life sentences in jail, while Nicky has agreed to speak out to raise awareness of the day-to-day terror South African farmers have to endure.
Despite conclusive DNA and CCTV evidence the twisted rapist had pleaded not guilty and forced Nicky to relive her ordeal in the witness box in a horrific 10 day trial that shocked South Africa.
Her life changed forever at 8pm on March 23, 2018, when a volley of bullets came through the patio door aimed at her 15-year-old son’s head somehow missing him by centimetres.
He shouted at my children that he was there to kill their father and that he would chop him up in front of them

Nicky said: “With the bullets smashing through the windows I can only describe our feeling as being hunted like wild animals. He shot his way through a sliding patio door to get in.
“What followed I can only describe as four hours of pure hell – just sick torture and depravity.
"He held the gun to my nine-year-old son's head and threatened to shoot him unless I complied.
“I told my little one to be quiet or else this man would kill us. All I saw were his silent tears rolling down his little cheeks for the next four hours. The sight of that will be with me forever.
"He tied us all up with fencing wire so tight that our hands lost their circulation and turned grey.
"He shouted at my children that he was there to kill their father and that he would chop him up in front of them. He said that when he came through the door they would watch him be butchered.
“All I could do was beg him not to make my son do that. He just kept pointing the gun at my son’s feet and saying he would shoot them unless he raped his mum in front of his brother and sister.
“I begged and pleaded with him not to do this and to take me to another room and take me instead.
"He grabbed me and forced me to my bedroom and raped me there. There was blood everywhere as I had already been badly shot. I could do nothing as my hands were tied behind my back.
HARROWING ORDEAL
"He then brought my 13-year-old daughter to the bedroom, undressed her and attempted to rape her. He was sexually molesting her and all I could do was beg for mercy and to take me again.
“So instead of raping her he forced my beautiful innocent daughter to watch as he raped me again.
"I cannot describe the anger this man displayed toward us and I knew as he raped me that if my children had any chance of survival I had to get this man away from them and the farm house..
“You don't care about yourself - you just don't want your children to die and you do all you can.
“I had told him my husband was away and was not coming back and by this time he realised we were not a threat to him and would do whatever he wanted so I think he kind of trusted us.
“He had tried to start our car outside but couldn’t get it going so in a bid to buy my family time I told him to take my bank cards and pin numbers and to let me drive him to town to the ATM.
“He tied up my children even tighter even though their hands were already grey from no circulation.
“I drove into town and got him my maximum 4000 Rand (£215) which was just before midnight so he told me to drive to a quiet spot until after midnight when the ATM would allow him to use the card again.
“He undid my seat belt and told me to recline the seat so he could rape me again but I was so weak from the loss of blood I told him that if he raped again I would almost certainly bleed to death.
“I told him it was 12.04am and that the ATM would give him another 4000 Rand (£215) and to please just take my cards and take his money and let me drive to hospital where I could get help.
“Once he was out of our VW transporter I hit the accelerator and drove back to the farm and found the children had freed themselves and called a neighbour and that help had reached them.
“I hugged my brave and petrified children but despite what had happened to us all and the emotional and physical torture he had put us through we were all alive and that was the important thing,
"For us as parents the saddest part of this is that we can never give our children their innocence back. That creature took it. The children and I will never be able to live on that farm again."

"The level of violence and cruelty we experienced is not unique, it is becoming a daily occurrence and is escalating at an alarming rate in South Africa but it is not being taken seriously."
AfriForum is a non-governmental organisation that highlights the plight of Afrikaner and European farmers who say they are under daily attack.
They revealed that so far this year 22 farmers have been murdered and 195 farms have been attacked and over recent years between 55 and 75 farmers are brutally killed each year.
Many of the attacks involve horrific torture including farmers being burned with hot irons, boiling water poured over their head and body, the use of power tools and gang rape before murder.

The South African government insists the chief motive is robbery and that it is not a specific attack on whites or farmers but that they are vulnerable and easy targets due to their remoteness.
AfriForum spokesman Ian Cameron said:”What leaves me baffled is that we have started making a difference between what are “good murders “or “bad murders” on farms in South Africa.
“When you do that it indicates a society that has become sick from all the violence.
“In Nicky’s case she was lucky as were her children to have survived the farm attack but will have to live with the lasting trauma after a 4 hour ordeal and the pshycological torture.
“Imagine the fear of knowing that your three children are constantly in danger and are made to watch as you are repeatedly raped after having already been shot and bleeding heavily.
Judge Olav Ronaasen passing sentence at the Eastern Cape High Court in Port Elizabeth branded Simane, 32, as “cruel and barbaric” and a “predator who targeted a woman and her children”.
He was given two life sentences plus 137 years after being found guilty of 17 offences including two of rape, 4 of attempted murder, attempted rape and compelling a child to watch a sex act.
