BARBERTON – A- 40 -year old woman was stabbed to death allegedly by her husband after an argument.
According to the police, a case of murder has been opened at the local police station and the suspect appeared briefly at the Barberton Magistrate court .
This is a second incident to happen within a month, where women were brutally murdered by their husbands.
Not so long ago another woman was also stabbed to death by her boyfriend at Kamadakwa at Mjindini Trust .
These shocking incidents occurred at the same time where the Commission of Gender Equality(CGE) urged women to stand up and report incidents of domestic violence.
It’s allegedly believed that men continue to abuse women, taking advantage of the fact that many victims do not report cases related to domestic violence.
Ms Patricia Ledwaba ,a legal adviser at the CGE in the province was quoted saying:
“Women don’t report incidents of abuse .Their partners are taking advantage of that and intensifying this barbaric act.”
The law must be very strong to those who do such things like this,it causes trauma to our children and make them feel not so safe just because of few bad people.we tired of such cases like this one men must grow up and have a good way of solving problems
