    The stories mentioned in this thread.....

    ...... were stomach-churning enough to begin with, but this story really makes me wonder what the world is coming to. This is just nuts! :(

    Baby beheaded 'in exchange for car'

    A Malawi man accused of beheading his four-month-old nephew has allegedly told police he was promised a car in return for the baby's blood.

    Samson Kaudzu, a 28-year-old security guard who worked in the African nation's largest city Blantyre, was visiting his hometown Ntcheu on Saturday when he allegedly beheaded the child.

    "Earlier that day his sister was not home as she had gone to the gardens. She had left the child in the care of a nine-year-old girl," Ntcheu Police spokesman Gift Matewere told the Malawi Daily Times.

    Upon arrival at the home, Kaudzu allegedly threatened the nine-year-old with a farming knife and chased her away from the baby.

    "After being chased away, the young girl rushed to report the matter to her mother who returned home only to see a lot of blood. By that time, the child was already dead."

    Police were notified immediately, and allegedly arrived to find the accused man holding a cup of the child's blood.

    "In his defense, Kaudzu said he was asked to bring blood by a certain man in Blantyre," said Mr Matewere.

    "The man allegedly wanted to use the baby’s blood as charms for his business to prosper and had promised Kaudzu a motor vehicle in return."

    Ntcheu Police are holding Kaudzu in custody as he undergoes medical tests before he is brought to court.


    Poor baby. :(

    yeah? what's new?

    you shouldn't ask what is the world coming to, but what is the world coming from?

    and that..., that is exactly what we are coming from. Now all we have to do is get rid of the abrahamic's, and maybe we can build a better world for everybody.

    Should we respect this tradition?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41,926 ✭✭✭✭_blank_


    I think we should.

    I've already beheaded several children, and I now drive a DeLorean.

    Great Scot!

    Kinda like Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son.

    And what did he get, a burning bush that's what. Dirty camel rustler.

    Was it Strongbow that cut his own son in half because he was ashamed of him? Hardly a new development except that the guy did it to get a car, they didn't have cars in Strongbows day.

    Surely if you were going to chop a nippers head off you'd pick an unrelated one? fecking eejit, its not like there's a shortage of unwanted sproggs in that part of the world

    I hope he at least had the decency to shake his fist while snarling "and i would have away with it if it wasnt for that meddling kid" :mad:

    Strongbow drove a Porsche 911. Learn your history please.

    Hell, I'd behead ten babies for this car

    Seeing as how that specific car is just a scale model, then not for that one exactly.
