Dead woman 'gives birth to stillborn baby 10 days after her death' in South Africa
The rural community of Mthayisi village in South Africa is currently
left in shock after a dead mother-of-five gave birth to a lifeless child
on the eve of her funeral.
The Times Live reported that Nomveliso Nomasonto Mdoyi, 33, was found
with a stillborn infant between her legs by funeral parlor staff 10
days after she lost her breath and died,
The discovery was reportedly made by a staff as Mdoyi’s body was
being transferred to a coffin at the Lindokuhle Funeral Parlour.
“When we took the body from the mortuary tray to her coffin we
discovered that there was a newly born baby between her legs,”
Lindokuhle Funeral owner Fundile Makalana told Dispatch Live.
He also added saying "We were so shocked and frightened that we did not even have time to look at the sex of the baby.
"I have been in the business for more than 20 years and I have never heard of a dead woman giving birth."
The stunned community members suspected witchcraft and even suggested
they burn the dead woman and her child. But it was learned that doctors
insist that it’s possible the child was born naturally to Mdoyi who was
nine months pregnant at the time of her death.
Mdoyi’s mother, Mandzala Mdoyi, 76, who also was shocked by the
discovery told Times Live:
“First, I was devastated by the untimely
death of my daughter and now I got the shock of my life to learn that
she has given birth while she had been dead for 10 days. What is that?
God please come and intervene.”
