Update
KZN man kills girlfriend and child over suspicions of cheating
A heartbreaking incident unfolded in uMgababa, KwaZulu-Natal, where Bongeka Makhathini, a 21-year-old woman, and her 3-year-old daughter, Okuhle, were killed by her boyfriend.
The man, Mlondi, reportedly suspected that Bongeka had cheated on him and that Okuhle was fathered by another man.
According to a voice note Mlondi sent to a relative, his suspicions drove him to commit the heinous act.
Both Bongeka and her daughter were found with their throats slit, and Mlondi was also discovered hanging from the roof inside their RDP house.
Sources reveal that Mlondi had been unemployed for four months and had recently displayed worsening temper issues, which those close to him attributed to his job loss.
It is also reported that Bongeka’s cellphone was destroyed during the incident, possibly to erase evidence.
Disturbingly, the house where this tragedy occurred is the same house where Mlondi’s father was murdered three years ago.
The community is reeling from the horrific events, mourning the loss of Bongeka and her young daughter.
