The 23-year-old man hailed down the communal taxi in Pretoria on Friday.

But three women inside injected him with an unknown drug and kidnapped him.

They allegedly spent three days raping the victim multiple times a day.

 A South African man was left traumatized after being drugged and raped 'numerous' times over three days by three female assailants.

The 23-year-old's ordeal began when he hailed down a communal taxi in eastern Pretoria on Friday - which had three young women inside.

The taxi began to change direction and the man was ordered to sit in the front.

Police say the 23-year-old victim was forced to have an energy drink before being raped 'multiple times a day' for three days.

He was then injected within an unknown substance and passed out, TimesLive reported.

South African Police Service Captain Colette Weilbach said: 'He stated that he woke up in an unfamiliar room on a single bed.

The female suspects then allegedly forced the man to drink an energy drink before taking turns raping him numerous times a day.

South African Police vowed to investigate and said they took "all sexual offenses seriously."

"[We assure] all victims of these types of crimes that we will carry out robust investigations to bring offenders to justice."

The victim was later dumped semi-naked in a field, where he managed to flag down a passing car.

Rape and sexual violence against both men and women are at epidemic levels in South Africa.

It is estimated that more than half-a-million rapes are committed annually in the country.
