Emotions ran high at the Protea Magistrates’ Court when the mother of deceased Nqobizitha Zulu threw an object at the accused as they were exiting the court gallery. The accused Nqobile Ndlovu stood and unashamedly looked at the grieving mother before the police dragged her back to the holding cells.

Ndlovu and her lover Mthunzi are accused of murdering and mutilating two boys from White City, Soweto, Nqobizitha and Tshiamo Rabanye. 

I TOLD MY FAMILY

The distraught mother, Nomthandazo Zulu, told Zimoja that her family did not want to listen to her when she told them that Ndlovu was the one she suspected was responsible for the missing children.

"I told my father that Nqobile, who is my aunt,  knows where the children are. He refused to listen and told me that we would find the children. Even when they told me that the body of Tshiamo was found in a dam in Rockville, I decided to take a walk and look for my own child and I found him lying dead in a pool of blood with stab wounds. I wanted to hug him but I heard his voice speaking to me saying I must not because I will mess up the evidence. So I let go and just stared at him the whole time until some people found me," she said.

She added that even after that incident her mind was set on one person and she told the family but again nobody listened to her.

"I am angry I want to ask her what my child said to her when they stabbed him. I knew it was her the whole time. My ancestors are never wrong and I hope she suffers. She has done this to a lot of children including her own, she’s evil and I hate her."

MORE CHARGES

The NPA’s Phindi Mjonondwane said there are more charges that will be added to accused number one. She said for now she cannot divulge any further details with regards to that. 

"At this stage we are glad that the accused have abandoned bail as we intend to oppose bail as the state. However, we are aware that their bail application will proceed as soon as legal aid has all the details about the matter,"said Mjonondwane.
