Of course.

An older report, here, which adds some colour.

Sample:

Q: How many times have you raped someone?
A: Twice

Q: How did it happen?
A: We were having some beers in a tavern and I spent (money on) the lady but when (the) time arrived (to) go she refused. I had to use manpower to take her with me. We never got to my place so I decided to rape her. The second time it was the same woman again, we met at a shebeen and we had beers together, when she decided to leave the place I escorted her and along the way I raped her.

Q: Did she report the case?
A: No.

Q: Do you know why?
A: She told me that though I raped her what she has I now also have it.
