Following the murder of 30-year-old Olorato Mongale, residents woke up on Sunday to news that Fose's body was discovered by a passer-by in the veld in Durban Deep, on the West Rand. Her genitals had been mutilated.

Reports indicate that the family suspects hate crime to be the motive in the murder of the Grade 8 learner, who identified as a lesbian.
