A seven-year-old South African boy
has been plunged into deep trauma recently.
The boy (name withheld) got
traumatized after seeing his parents' dead bodies.
According to Daily Sun SA, when the
boy came back home from playing with his friends, he found his mum’s body on
the floor. He also saw his father allegedly sitting on the bed, staring at the
body.
The boy immediately ran out to the
neighbour’s house.
He returned hours later. However,
this time, things were different.
His mum’s body, wrapped in a blanket
was still there, but his dad was now hanging from the roof rafters.
Daily Sun SA reports that the
shocking incident occurred at Newskom, near Mbombela in Mpumalanga, South
Africa, last Wednesday.
Speaking about the incident, a
neighbour said earlier the couple had been heard arguing loudly.
“They were making a lot of noise and
you could hear that they were fighting.
“Because they always fought, we just
ignored them. We couldn’t have known that this time it would go this far.”
Police spokeswoman Captain Jabu
Ndubane said when cops arrived at the scene, they found the woman’s body had
bruises.
Her husband was hanging from the
roof rafters.
“We suspect that the husband wrapped
his wife’s body in a blanket because he wanted to dump or hide it,” said Ndubane.
“But he couldn’t because his son
walked in on him.”
She said inquest and murder dockets
have been opened.
The child has been taken to a place
of safety.
