He killed the rapist of his daughter and justice "forgave" him, who is the lion mother?

A woman used her own justice against her daughter's rapist and the authorities eventually forgave him.

The history of lioness mum It all started in the middle of the night, when Nokubonga received a call from a woman who told her that three men from the community were raping her daughter, Siphokazi. Desperate, she called the police, but no one answered him.

The mother knew the officers could not reach her village in the middle of the hills of Eastern Cape Province in South Africa. She was the only person who could help Siphokazi.

The girl had visited friends in a group of four houses in the same city, but fell asleep and alone when her friends left around 1:30 am. Then, three men who had been drinking in one of the neighboring houses came in and attacked him.

When Nokubonga approached the house, he heard the screams of his daughter. Entering the room, the light from her mobile phone allowed her to see the scary scene of the raped young woman.

"I was scared?" I stopped at the door and asked them what they were doing. When they saw me, they came to see me and that's when "I thought I had to defend myself, it was an automatic reaction," Nokubonga said. The woman refuses to tell in detail what happened next.

The judge of the case said that the testimony of Nokubonga had shown that the fact of seeing one of the men raping his daughter, while the other two were waiting their turn, the pants down, l? had "emotionally affected".

While attacking them, they tried to run away and one of them even jumped out the window. Two were seriously injured and one died. In South Africa, because of the high number of cases of violations, the press does not leave much room, but this case known as lioness mum, transcended throughout the territory.

Women had to wait more than a year for this to happen. In December 2018, the two badailants, Xolisa Siyeka, 30, and Mncedisi Vuba, 25, members of the same community as Nokubonga and Siphokazi, were sentenced to 30 years in prison.
