Former paramedic Loyiso Coko must report to Makhanda Correctional Centre in the Eastern Cape within seven days to begin serving his sentence for rape.
This was the result of a supplementary judgment handed down by the Supreme Court of Appeal (SCA) on Friday, which corrected its April verdict against Coko.
At the time, the SCA reinstated his conviction after upholding an appeal by the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA).
