Lucas Phasha was convicted and sentenced for hacking three of his children to death with an axe and bludgeoning his last-born to death with a rock in February 2020.

The court heard that Phasha had previous convictions for murder, three counts of attempted murder and one for reckless driving.“I am so relieved. I am relieved that he was arrested. It pains me that he didn’t admit it but he knew he killed them. They saw in court that he killed them,” she said.

The National Prosecuting Authority welcomed the sentence and said it would send a strong message to the public that this was a gruesome murder, and the criminal justice system made sure justice was served. NPA spokesperson Mashudu Malabi-Dzhangi said state prosecutor advocate Mashudu Mudau proved all the elements of the murders.Limpopo social development MEC Nkakareng Rakgoale with the mother of the deceased children, Sylvia Monyela, outside the Limpopo high court.Malabi-Dzhangi said before the murders, Phasha had posted on his Facebook page that his wife was seeing another man and would never see her children again.

“The police arrested Phasha the same day after he confessed to his neighbour that he had killed his children,” Malabi-Dzhangi said. Provincial social development MEC Nkakareng Rakgoale, who was in court, welcomed the outcome of the case and said it will serve as a deterrent to would-be abusers and murderers of children.“I feel relieved especially because this comes at a time when we are commemorating national Child Protection Week. This sends a message to the public that we have a responsibility to protect children. Justice has been served.
