THE DISCOVERY of a skull and bones from the upper body of a human being were gruesome enough – but worse was yet to come.
A woman came forward to tell the cops that she had killed her husband and buried the remains in three different yards.
AND THEN SHE LED THEM TO THE GRAVES!
After the gruesome discovery in Ledig Village outside Rustenburg, North West last Friday, the suspect led the cops’ digging party to a second yard where she claimed the legs of her husband were buried.
But it had become dark and the digging had to be called off and continued on Monday.
The woman also claimed there’s a third yard where some of the body parts were buried.
Nancy Majonhi (42) was allegedly renting a room in Ledig, Pharama section with her husband in 2015 when a fight started and she allegedly hit her husband with a hammer. She allegedly continued hitting him with a hammer until he was dead. She allegedly took a spade and sliced his body into pieces and buried the parts in three different yards.
Then she went and opened a missing persons case. Earlier this month, the suspect went to her family to confess that she killed her husband.
Resident Dudu Mhlanga said cutting somebody into pieces was just like curring an animal. “We don’t know how to react to this. They live among our children. If she had the ability to dismember her husband, I’m scared,” said Dudu.
One of the yard owners said he’s angry. He said he was still wondering how and when the suspect got time to dig the holes and bury the body parts.
“How can a human being do that? She should have been burnt alive,” he said. The community claimed the suspect has done this before and should be harshly punished.
Police Spokesman Sergeant Ofentse Mokgadi confirmed that a woman has been arrested for murder. She will be appearing again at the Mogwase Magistrates Court on Thursday, 26 August. “The investigation into the matter is underway and the police managed to retrieve a skull and bones which will be subjected to DNA tests.”
