Man found with heart cut out

An old man was found dead in Mopani, near Musina, with his heart missing and other fatal wounds to his head and stomach, Limpopo police said on Monday.

"The heart was out, out, out on the floor. We assume something like an axe was used, but we are not sure because we haven't found the murder weapon yet," said spokesperson Captain Maano Sadike.

He said that 69-year-old Masedi Alpheus Pilusa's son discovered his body, with "two cut wounds on his head. His stomach was cut open and his heart was missing". He was found in his home at the Bokhutha village.

"We don't know why the old man was alone, but his son went to visit him and found him dead," Sadike said.

No motive has been established yet by the police, who appeal to the community to assist with any information they might have with the murder investigation.
