Boy (7) commits suicide
A seven-year-old boy hanged himself this morning at the municipal plots behind the Hakana settlement about a kilometre from Omaruru.
Penato Sageus, his stepfather and mother, as well as his four-year-old sister and five-year-old brother, did their daily inspection of their goat pen. According to the police in the Erongo region, it was found that a goat had been slaughtered and removed from the kraal.
The parents decided to follow the tracks and told the three children to stay home. According to the police, the parents followed the tracks to the Hakahana settlement where they stopped. When they returned home at around 08:00, the five-year-old boy took them to a shady spot made of wood where Penato had hanged himself.
