In a mindboggling incident, a disgruntled and elderly man from Limpopo, South Africa ended the lives of his four biological children in a desperate bid to get back at his bed-hopping wife whom he accused of infecting him with the human immune deficiency virus (HIV).

Surprisingly, the killings occurred not long after the distressed man had taken to social media to vent out his frustrations.

The murderer, Senyatse Lucas Pasha in a series of Facebook posts poured his heart out citing unfair treatment from his youthful wife whom he sensationally claimed was spending time with her much younger boyfriends whilst denying his attention.

In a post dated 17 February 2020, that left many of his followers shell-shocked, Lucas Pasha disclosed all the names of the men he suspected were having illicit sexual affairs with his wife Sylvia.

He also added that, because his wife had many sexual partners, she had contracted HIV which she transferred to him.

The heartbroken man also indicated that his wife Sylvia had neglected his children in.

In another post, the seemingly suicidal man claimed that his wife could not do simple tasks such as bathing his children and cooking for them. He also added that whenever he bought foodstuffs they usually ended up rotten as his wife was absent from their matrimonial home much of the time.

Despite several warnings by his Facebook friends, Lucas instead turned a deaf ear and went on to kill their four children and has since gone on the run.

However, some social media users have lashed out at Sylvia for being the root cause of the tragedy.
