South African Police
Beatrice Nyako, a South African woman believed to be in her
30’s, is currently in police grips for poisoning her own two-year-old
son to pave way for her to marry her boyfriend.
According to South Africa Latest News, the accused who stays in
KwaMashu, in Durban was yesterday arrested by the police along with her
mother (the deceased’s grandmother).
Seaking with the press, neighbours revealed that Beatrice who has
been promised marriage by her boyfriend believed the son was a threat to
her marriage, hence the decision to kill him.
The accused woman is said to have fed her child boiled egg poisoned
with weedicide, and later locked him up in the room and left.
When she realized that her son was dead after returning to the
house, it seemed the gravity of her act dawned on her making her
remorseful because she attempted committing suicide.
However, she was rescued by some neighbours who rushed her to a
hospital in the area for treatment and later reported the case to the
police who came to arrest her.
Police have started investigations into the matter.
