Deaf PE woman fatally stabbed as boyfriend nips out

Relatives and neighbours of an impoverished deaf woman were in shock on Monday night after she was fatally stabbed in her Port Elizabeth home.

Nomakhaya Mazomba‚ 46‚ was found in her Mbanga Street‚ Soweto-on-Sea‚ home at about 3pm.

Her body was found by her boyfriend‚ Siyanda Mdekazi‚ 44‚ who claimed Mazomba had been attacked in the 30 minutes between the time that he left the house for an unknown reason and when he returned to find her lying on a bed on Monday afternoon.

“I am shocked. She had been stabbed in the top-left side of her chest‚” he said.

“It is strange. We both have a key for the door. I locked the door when I left‚ but when I came back and tried to unlock the door‚ I found it was unlocked. “I went in and that is how I found her.”
