She said she saw her father strangling her mother when she got up to ease herself but couldn’t do anything because her father threatened to kill her.
It was however her cry for help that attracted neighbours, who got there after the woman was already dead. Neighbours, who ran to the scene, called the deceased brother but locked the man indoors to stop him from escaping.
The man has however been handed over to police, as their neighbors are struck with shock.
