A scene of unbearable violence
Friday evening, a family of Farafangana (southeast of Madagascar) was the victim of a horror scene. A 60-year-old man, his 56-year-old wife and their 25-year-old daughter-in-law were beheaded at their home in the commune of Ambalavato-Nord. The head of the fifty-year-old was recovered, but those of the head of the family and the young woman are still not found, according to information relayed by The Madagascar Express.
A conflict at the origin of the drama
The authorities blame an individual who, after squatting on the family's land, built a house there. As the work could not be completed, his mother would have collected the materials. Angry, the man threatened the owners of the land. “You will all see, I will kill you”he allegedly declared, reports the gendarmerie.
Ongoing investigation
An investigation has been opened to clarify the circumstances of this triple murder. Witnesses claimed to have seen the suspect at the crime scene during the night. The gendarmerie announced the launch of an operation to find him. Residents of the region are in shock after this incredible act of violence.
