A 19-year-old woman, Namisile Mkhize, who had gone missing from Nhlazuka in Maromini, has been tragically found dead.
The young woman disappeared on July 17, 2024, after being called to meet the father of her child in Mid-Illovo via a shortcut through sugarcane fields.
According to reports, the child’s father claimed that he left Namisile waiting for vehicles at the location, which is surrounded by sugarcane.
Sadly, she never made it back home.
Her lifeless body was later discovered in the fields, with her neck tightly bound with a shoelace, indicating she had been strangled.
This heartbreaking incident occurred just days before Unamisile was due to attend a court case, a reminder of the trauma she endured after being raped in the same area near her home last year, in 2023.
