Ex-Rugby Star Charged In Serial Axe Murders

Johannesburg, South Africa — A former South African rugby star will undergo mental observation after he was charged with the gruesome axe murders of three people in Durban on Monday.

Joseph Ntshongwana is said to have went on a killing spree after his daughter was raped and infected with HIV; however police say there is no evidence that proves a rape ever occurred. Police arrested Ntshongwana after he was found at his home with an axe and bloodstained clothing.

Khangelani Mdluli, a resident of Lamontville, said he survived an attack: “He stopped the car, jumped out with a plastic bag… I thought it was a gun.” Mr Mdluli said the attacker was shouting: “You think I’m stupid? You infected my daughter with HIV.” Source
