When people kill and die for love

FRANCISTOWN: In recent weeks Francistown and surrounding areas have seen a spate of suicides and passion killings that have left relatives and other residents in shock.

In Mosetse, a man reportedly went berserk killing a policeman, injuring relatives and torching houses. Two of the houses were reported to belong to sangomas whose tools of the trade, herbs and money paid out by patients, perished in the inferno. The man reportedly killed himself when the police cornered him.

In another incident that has also left relatives in shock, a man reportedly picked up his lover at her place of work in Francistown and the duo drove to Mathangwane. On the way the man who was driving, kept telling the terrified woman who apparently was showing a remarkably cool head, that he was going to crash the car into one of those 'abnormal' vehicles with heavy loads, which was just ahead of them so that they could both be squashed to death.
