Boy in South Africa Suffers Death at ‘Corrective’ Camp

 Wikipedia_flag_south_africa_large[1]A fifteen year old boy in South Africa has died in a case that has been deemed to have underlying tones of gay reparative therapy. The young boy, Raymond Buys, was allegedly chained to his bed, beaten with planks and sticks, forced to eat his own faeces and electrocuted. 

Sent to Alex de Koker’s Echo Wild Game Rangers by his mother, Koker promised to help the victim find a job in the wildlife trade, whilst allegedly working to remove any signs of femininity by ‘curing feminine traits’.

“I sent my son on this course to make him a better man, to give him a better future,” the mother of Buys told The Daily Telegraph. “I trusted Alex de Koker with his life.”
