'The bodies of the three children had five-inch nails in their heads and necks, while the youngest one was bludgeoned to death with a huge stone.'

"He sent me a text message to inform me about the deaths of the children and the location of their bodies. When I followed up on his information, I was shocked to find three children placed at one spot in a trench not far from their house," he said.He said the family suspected that the father had used either a hammer or stone to push the nails into the children's heads and necks.

Sowetan has learnt that a few hours before the murders took place, the suspect posted a status on social media, accusing his girlfriend of 10 years of cheating and named the man he claimed she was involved with. However, Monyela's relative refuted allegations that she neglected the children and said she had tried her best to protect them.

"She wanted to obtain a protection order against her husband but police told her to go to Praktiseer magistrate's court - 50km away," Motebejane said."She came back home and was heartbroken. If police had helped her, the children would still be alive," she said.Mojapelo said they had not received any complaint regarding Monyela being turned away and said they would investigate and take steps against whoever may have turned her away.
