A gay man was murdered, mutilated, and then buried in a yard in a suspected hate crime in South Africa, according to local reports.
The remains of Andile “Lulu” Ntuthela, 40, were discovered late last month in a shallow grave near his alleged killer’s front door in Eastern Cape, a province in the southeast coast of South Africa.
According to the South African radio Jacaranda FM, a spokesperson for the local police, Priscilla Naidu, said that investigators arrested Luvuyo Jonas, 28 earlier this month, after his family reported him for burning his bedding.
