| Man has gran's head in luggage |
| 2006-11-21 |
| In further news of dismembered body parts in South Africa, ... Where else? ... a man was arrested for carrying the severed head of his grandmother in his luggage. He wasn't immediately arrested for that particular element of his crime. When he was orignally detained on a bus by the police, the first thing they found was a human finger, in his pocket (he was arrested after a tip-off). It was only after the finger was discovered that the man - by this time held at a police station - mentioned that his luggage was still on the bus. There ensued a fun chase as the police tried to catch up with the bus. When they finally managed to recover the luggage, inside it they found the man's grandmother's head, along with a couple of arms. A headless body was found in the man's village. 'It is alleged the man murdered his 85-year-old grandmother on Friday by cutting her throat like a goat in a village near in Butterworth,' said police spokesman Captain Jackson Manatha. This incident is not believed to be connected to the disembodied penis found in another part of South Africa on Friday, because it is unlikely that the man's grandmother had a penis. You gotta love british newspapers. Masters of finesse and understatement. |
