A British woman was raped in bed next to her husband while the couple were on honeymoon in South Africa.

The attack took place after four men broke into their house in Johannesburg.

The woman, 26, who is today awaiting the results of an HIV test, said: "We were lying in bed at about 2am. The next moment I saw a hand against the wall at the light switch.

"One of the men dragged me towards him by the feet. He raped me in our bed, next to my husband. I heard him starting to cry."

After beating the couple and tying them up the robbers escaped with jewellery and £1,000 in cash.
