 A Limpopo man who stabbed his girlfriend to death in front of his own mother will spend the next 20 years in prison. The Polokwane High Court sentenced 48 year old Nathaniel Molatelo Mokgehle from Sekonye Village in the Botlokwa policing area for the murder of his girlfriend, 41 year old Mokgadi Julia Mohlaela. The court heard he chased her out of the house and continued stabbing her until she collapsed and died. Mokgehle also received six months for malicious damage to property. The sentence will run at the same time as the 20 year murder sentence. Evidence presented in court showed the victim had previously opened a malicious damage to property case against him. He was still attending court for that case when the murder happened. The attack happened on 08 June 2025 around 16:00 at his mother’s home in Sekonye Village.

Catastrophic Flooding from Hurricane Helene Claims at Least 30 Lives in North Carolina


At least 30 people have died in Buncombe County, North Carolina, following the catastrophic flooding caused by Hurricane Helene, which has left many others unaccounted for. The storm, initially a Category 4 hurricane, made landfall in Florida before moving northward, wreaking havoc across several states. North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper described the devastation as "biblical," emphasizing that this is one of the worst natural disasters the state has ever faced. The death toll nationwide has climbed to at least 105, with expectations of further increases as rescue efforts continue.


Buncombe County has emerged as one of the hardest-hit areas, with over 1,000 residents reported missing and many homes completely destroyed. Emergency crews are facing significant challenges due to downed trees and closed roads, complicating rescue operations. "This storm has brought catastrophic devastation... of historic proportions," said Governor Cooper, who noted that the storm dropped between 10 to 29 inches of rain in mountainous regions, leading to life-threatening conditions and widespread power outages.


Residents returning to their neighborhoods have found their homes submerged or severely damaged. Erin Quevedo, a local salon owner, described her business as "completely destroyed," emphasizing the urgency to salvage what remains. The American Red Cross has opened over 140 shelters for evacuees, housing more than 2,000 individuals seeking refuge from the storm's aftermath. Governor Cooper highlighted the desperate need for assistance: "People are desperate for help and we are pushing to get it to them."


As rescue operations continue, the National Guard has rescued over 119 individuals, including an infant. With nearly 2 million people without power across the Southeast and extensive damage estimated between $95 billion and $110 billion, recovery efforts will take time. President Biden has signed a disaster declaration for North Carolina to facilitate federal aid for those affected by Helene's destructive path.
