'I killed the child'

Johannesburg - One of the four men charged with the murder of six-month-old Cape Town baby Jordan Leigh Norton has confessed to being the killer, a Wynberg magistrte heard on Friday.

The revelation came during the bail hearing of taxi driver and shebeen owner Sipho Mfazwe who confessed to driving the other three accused to the baby's Landsdowne home on June 15 this year.

Prosecutor John Ryneveld read out in court a confession made by Mfazwe co-accused Mongezi Bobotyane who said Mfazwe told him he had a job to kill a child.

They went to a house where they gained entry by pretending to deliver a parcel.

"We took clothing and shoes...after that I killed the child," he said in the confession.

The magistrate who took the confession noted at this point "the deponent starts crying, he is given time to recover and handed tissues".

Saamprater says... @nkosi, yes you are right, the changes will be real. So real that you will never own a piece of this land. The state (read: communist cANCer) will abolish the fundamentals of democracy, which is property ownership, thereby you losing your house in the township, the one youv'e been paying off on in a Jhb suburb as well as the one you got for free in a out of city town, as well as that piece of land that your parents have been working so hard to work and protect, with that all farmland will belong to the state as well as all businesses, because you can't have the one and not the other. In fact, everything your parents suffered for (94 democracy) will be abolished, and you call us whites worried? The only reason you are not concerned is because it seems you don't understand what the cANCer is aiming at, and that makes you a fool with some internet privileges. You and yours do NOT understand that once you change something fundamental in the constitution, you might as well scrapp everything. That means, you will lose your right to citizenship and you are back into slavery. The master now is just called by another name, but a slave nevertheless. Worried now? Not? Better be!!
