Farmer âfeeds troublesome worker to lionâ
Police have arrested a Limpopo game farmer and three alleged accomplices after they allegedly fed a "troublesome" worker to lions.
Youâve all thought about doing it, havenât you?
The unnamed men were arrested on Monday at the Engedi game farm near Hoedspruit after recovering 38-year-old Nelson Shisaneâs skull, part of his legs and bloodied clothing from the scene.
Ewuuuuuuuuuu!
"Witnesses say the farmer first severely beat Shisane, before tying him up, driving him 15km to the (Mokwalo White Lion Project) game farm and throwing him over a fence into a lion enclosure," said police Superintendent Ronel Otto. "The farmer and three workers then allegedly watched as a lion mauled him, before it dragged him into the bush."
"OK, showâs over. Back to work, guys."
Local labourers and neighbours report that Shisane was recently dismissed from the farm after a dispute with its owner, who may not be named until he appears in the Hoedspruit magistrateâs court on murder charges.
