A teacher has been accused of killing her 26-year-old disabled daughter and burning her remains on a BBQ.
Charred body parts of the dead woman – named as Magdalena Nunyango Amunyoko – were allegedly found in the ‘braai’ stand at the family home.
Ms Amunyoko was reportedly born with a condition which restricted her body functions and left her bedridden.
Neighbours in the town of Ongwediva, Namibia, claim the disabled woman was hacked to death with a machete before her remains were burned on the BBQ.
Her wheelchair and other possessions were also burned.
Gruesomely, her head survived the fire and could still be seen in the BBQ, the Namibian newspaper reports.
Her mother, a teacher at a local school, has reportedly been arrested and is being held in a hospital’s psychiatric ward.
The killing is believed to have been carried out at around 6pm on Friday with the body discovered the following morning by one of the suspect’s sons – who called the police.
