While the country was sent into shock waves following the brutal murder of Matefo Maphosela, a 35 year old grade 12 Physical Science teacher at Kagisano Combined School allegedly by Simphiwe Mondi, a 20-year-old pupil( turning 21 in December), news of their romance has come to the fore.
Mphosela was stabbed on Thursday night at her rented house in Soutpan, allegedly by Mondi with sources claiming they were staying together.
A source who spoke on condition of anonymity said Mphosela had just arrived from Bloemfontein when the accused confronted her over her whereabouts before an argument ensued.
“She had just arrived from Bloemfontein when he confronted her about her whereabouts.”
Another source said a week earlier Mphosela had bought Mondi farewell clothes and he was not the first pupil.
“On Saturday Me Mphosela had bought farewell clothes for Mondi and he was not the first pupil to be in a relationship with her.
She always preyed on matriculants and before Mondi she dated two others;(names withheld) who were in matric in 2020 and 2021. This year it was Mondi, plus she was married to an administrator in the school.”

“The sad part of it all is the future of a young boy. We all heard, and saw but kept quiet.”
Mondi appeared in court yesterday and his bail hearing has been postponed to 31 October 2022 with the magistrate rejecting his plea to write exams.
This is a developing story.
Step Up SA News in no way condones the behavior of Mondi, no one deserves to die at the hands of another human being, relationship or not.
