A manhunt has been launched by the Limpopo police for the ex-boyfriend of a 32-year-old woman after he allegedly killed her mother, and kidnapped her five-year-old son in Mashau Bodwe village.
According to police spokesperson, Colonel Malesela Ledwaba,
the women were asleep when the ex-boyfriend forcibly entered the house.
He allegedly started to "hack both women with a
panga", Ledwaba said, before forcing the five-year-old child into the
32-year-old woman's vehicle.
The vehicle was found abandoned in Makhado and the child
was found at his father's homestead in Mashamba village. But the ex-boyfriend
was nowhere to be found.
"Both victims were taken to hospital after they
sustained severe injuries. Consequent to the horrific incident, police opened
two counts of attempted murder, [as well as counts of] kidnapping and motor
vehicle theft," Ledwaba said.
The mother succumbed to her injuries, forcing police to
change one of the attempted murder charges to a murder charge.
