The body of Matshepo Cleo Malefane was found hanging from a tree in Mapetla Soweto Pikit-up on January 5th.
According to her family, Matshepo was last seen at her boyfriend’s house the morning before her body was found. Family members said they needed answers as it made no sense that she killed herself.
Her brother Lebohang said he got a call from their mum on Monday night saying Matshepo had gone missing. Their mum told him Matshepo went to the outside toilet and never came back.
“It was very strange because she never disappeared without telling anyone where she was going,” he said.
Lebohang said the next morning, they went to Matshepo’s boyfriend’s house and found her watching TV with him.“I was very upset and didn’t want to speak to her because she had made us worried. We told the boyfriend to take her home and he agreed,” he said.
