 A former preschool teacher in South Africa, Amber-Lee Hughes, has been convicted of the premeditated murder and other serious crimes involving her 4-year-old stepdaughter, Nada-Jane Challita, in a tragic incident from January 2023 in Johannesburg. The child was found deceased in a bathtub, and the case has drawn widespread attention due to the severity of the offenses and the relationship between the individuals involved.


In recent court proceedings for sentencing, Hughes testified and requested leniency, expressing remorse while sharing her perspective on the events. The matter highlights ongoing concerns about child safety and protection, and sentencing continues as the court considers all factors in this deeply disturbing case.

Convicted Killer Amber-Lee Hughes Faces Cross-Examination


Amber-Lee Hughes, 26, is back in the Johannesburg High Court as the State begins cross-examining her during sentencing for the rape and murder of four-year-old Nada-Jane Challita.


Hughes killed the child in January 2023 while she was in her care at a Glenvista home. She has admitted the crime but told the court she believed she was “saving” the child and considered taking her own life.


The accused revealed struggles with bipolar disorder and depression and said she had sometimes stopped medication due to financial problems. She apologised to Nada-Jane’s family and expressed regret.


The State is set to challenge her testimony and argue for a severe sentence. Nada-Jane’s father is expected to give evidence later.


The court is weighing Hughes’s mental health against the shocking nature of the crime.
