Case of killer mom postponed

THE case of the mother accused of killing her two young daughters was again postponed in the Protea magistrate's court yesterday.

THE case of the mother accused of killing her two young daughters was again postponed in the Protea magistrate's court yesterday.

Busisiwe Obose is facing two charges of murdering Londiwe and Samkelisiwe, aged one and three years, last year.

Magistrate Brian Nemavhidi postponed the case to July 19 for the court to get postmortem results for one of the children.

This was the second postponement.

Obose, 21, was arrested in May after police had waited for more than a year for the postmortem results.

In January 2009, Obose allegedly prepared a drink laced with aldicarb, a rat poison. She drank some and gave the rest to her two daughters.

She survived.
