A South African woman, Nicole Govender has broken her silence about the devastating lost of her two daughters, Amelia Hope and four-year-old Elena Faith, who died in a suspected poisoning incident.
Police said that they believe the girls’ father, Leon Munsamy, poisoned them before taking his own life.
The children were reportedly given a McDonald’s meal shortly before the tragedy.
Speaking on the post, Govender, 37, an IT and software specialist, described the days leading up to the incident as tense and unsettling.
She said her former husband began sending troubling messages after learning she had entered a new relationship.
According to Govender, the messages included remarks she described as mocking and emotionally manipulative.
The communication intensified in the days before the incident.
