YES, I said I was going to kill him. But no, I didn’t mean it and I didn’t kill him.

Sanah Motswele (65) told Daily Sun at her house in Cosmo City, near Lanseria, Gauteng, that she was shocked when she heard she was accused of killing a little boy.

“What would I benefit from killing an innocent child?” asked Sanah.

She added the first incident happened when her grandson and Bongiwe Mboso’s son, Somaleza Mboso (6), broke the glass of a sliding door. She agreed with Bongiwe that they should each pay R450, but Bongiwe could only make a partial payment. She replaced the sliding door, but three days later the same boy broke another window.

She said: “I told his mother I would kill the boy but I was just angry. They could not afford to pay for the door, how could they pay for the window?”

When Sanah heard the boy was missing she immediately went to Bongiwe.

“My daughter told me my grandson came home smelling of kak. I called the police to help us search for the child.”

The boys were allegedly playing in a sewer when Bongiwe’s son got trapped.

The cops called off the search that night and came back the next morning.

The next day she went to the Mboso home to find out what was happening.

“Bongiwe cried and accused me of killing her child,” she said.

Sanah went to Limpopo and when she came back the papers and radio stations were accusing her of killing the boy.

Sanah said she will never forgive that family.

“I’m not even from Lesotho as they claimed in the paper,” she said.

The Mboso family would not comment as they are preparing for the boy’s funeral on Friday.

Honeydew cops are investigating.
