Police officers in south Africa have dig up 5 bodies in backyard of a who man confessed to
beating women to death after sex
Mpumalanga police have dug up the bodies of five
women, after a man allegedly confessed to killing his first victim after
meeting her on Facebook, Colonel Mtsholi Mbembe said on Sunday.
The horrific discoveries were made during a police
investigation into the disappearance of one woman, which led them to the man's
home about two weeks ago.
"When police went to his place, he ran away,
but his mother took him to the police station," Mbembe said.
"That was when he confessed to the first
body," said Mbembe.
The man allegedly told the police that he had met
the woman on Facebook and that they had sex.
He claimed that afterwards the woman had wanted
money and threatened to tell the police that he had raped her if she did not
pay up.
In response, he punched her and she fell down, hit
her head, and died.
He said he had then removed her clothes and buried
her.
The police exhumed her body, but then the man
allegedly told the investigating officer that there were four more bodies.
Between Friday and Sunday, police have been digging
up and searching his property and, to their shock, found the bodies.
