A South African man has killed himself after stabbing his girlfriend and hiding her body under the bed.
41 years old Thabiso Hlabahlaba killed his 33 years old girlfriend, Khethiwe Mosoeu, last Thursday at their home in Centurion, Gauteng area of South Africa. After the murder, he swallowed four packs of rat poison with gin
Before he died, police arrived at his house and rushed him to the hospital but he died two days later.
Thabiso’s sister Dikeledi, 31, said Thabiso told them his girlfriend went to the shops when they asked him where she was. But they suspected something as wrong because Thabiso, who rarely drinks, had bought a bottle of gin and drank it all.
“He was not a drinking person and we became suspicious,” Dikeledi said.
She said they went to the apartment he shared with Khethiwe and discovered she had been killed.
She said, “We broke the window. There was blood on the curtain and we saw her legs sticking out under the bed. We still wonder why Thabiso did this. It’s a pity he’s also dead and won’t tell us why he did it.”.
