Mother sentenced for hanging children in Pretoria West

A Pretoria West mother has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for the murder of both of her daughters.

“Bokaba was in a love relationship with the father of the two-month-old baby and was staying with him in his back room in his parent’s backyard. While the two were still in a relationship, Bokaba discovered that the lover was continuously cheating on her, and he was also not assisting her with the children,” Mahanjana says.

In her plea statement, she told the court that when she woke up on May 14, 2022, she felt overwhelmed by the state of her relationship with her husband. After hanging and killing the children, she attempted to commit suicide by also hanging herself but was unsuccessful, Mahanjana says.“The incident was discovered by the mother-in-law after she received a missed call from Bokaba.
