On Father’s Day, a 35-year-old man named Siyanda Magagu kidnapped his girlfriend’s 3-year-old son, Anganam Magxwalisa, and hung him from a tree in Xholora township, Stutterheim, in the Eastern Cape, South Africa.

Eastern Cape NPA spokesperson Luxolo Tyali reported that Magagu appeared at the Stutterheim Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday, June 18, 2024, facing charges of kidnapping and murder. He has been remanded in custody.

The incident allegedly took place after Magagu argued with the child’s mother. He took the child from his 13-year-old cousin, claiming he was going to buy him sweets at a local spaza shop. According to family spokesperson Babalwa Goroleki, Magagu had been part of Anganam’s life since he was two months old.

“We are deeply shocked,” said Goroleki. “We never thought he would do something like this. He loved him like his own. We just don’t understand what could have possessed him to do something like this.”

Provincial police spokesperson Lieutenant-Colonel Siphokazi Mawisa said the mother contacted the police to report Anganam missing.
