A 27-year-old man is expected to reappear in the KwaMhlanga Magistrate’s Court next week, for allegedly killing his two-month-old baby.
Irvin Lotta Mahlangu made his first appearance in court on Friday following his arrest on January 28.
The incident happened in KwaMhlanga.
Police spokesperson Brigadier Leonard Hlathi said Mahlangu had a heated argument with the mother of his child over alleged rituals that he was performing involving the baby.
“Reports further indicates that Mahlangu was very furious during the argument they were having to a point where he allegedly strangled as well as stabbed the defenceless child.
“The 22-year-old mother became so terrified as the assailant threatened to kill her as well. She screamed for help and broke windows of the house to get attention from people. Fortunately, people who heard the screams notified police about this barbaric act,” said Hlathi.
Police and emergency medical personnel responded to the calls. However, the child was declared dead at the scene by paramedics.
Mahlangu was immediately arrested as a result.
“During his appearance in court, Mahlangu was not asked to plead but was remanded in custody until February 6, for a formal bail application,” Hlathi said.
Mpumalanga provincial commissioner Lieutenant General Mondli Zuma has strongly condemn the infant’s murder and welcomed Mahlangu’s arrest.
“It is regrettable to hear of incidences where children, like this little one, are allegedly murdered by their own parents who are supposed to be protecting them. Children are the future and a home is regarded as the first line of defence where children should be nurtured as well as protected.
“However, homes have become battle fields and horrific places where children witness pain, suffering and death at the hands of those that should provide love and care.
“Our society has indeed lost a moral compass and we therefore call upon all opinion leaders as well as community-based organisations to work hand in hand with the police with a view to restore morals in the society,” said Zuma.
He said he was confident that a team of detective assigned to the case, the prosecution and the judiciary will ensure that justice is served.
Zuma wished for a maximum sentence for perpetrators of crimes against women and children.

Women and men have a much higher risk of dangerous heart problems soon after their first stroke compared to people without stroke, even if they don’t have obvious underlying heart disease, a study has found.
Researchers investigated data on more than 93 000 people age 66 or older in Ontario, Canada. The group included more than 12 000 women and 9 500 men who had an ischaemic stroke, the most common type.
None of the subjects had apparent heart disease. But after having a first stroke, the risk of having a major heart incident – such as a heart attack, heart failure or cardiovascular death – 30 days later was 25 times higher in women and 23 times higher in men.
One year after a stroke, men and women still had twice the risk of a major cardiac event compared to their peers who had not had a stroke, found the study, published in the American Heart Association journal Stroke.
“We already knew that patients with stroke have more frequent cardiovascular complications than other people,” said lead author Dr Luciano Sposato, an associate professor and head of the stroke programme at the Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry at Western University in London, Ontario.
Doctors had suspected the connection was related to risk factors shared between heart disease and stroke, such as hypertension, diabetes or smoking.
But seeing the connection in people without underlying heart disease suggests other mechanisms are involved and need more research, Sposato said.
Although the study found no differences in post-stroke risk between women and men, previous studies have shown men are eight times more likely than women to have hidden heart disease, Sposato said. That suggests different mechanisms might be at work in men than in women, he said.
Dr Cheryl Bushnell, professor of neurology at Wake Forest School of Medicine and vice chair of research at Wake Forest Baptist Health in North Carolina, called the level of risk uncovered by the study “astounding”.
It means those who treat stroke patients need to emphasise follow-up care even more than they do now, said Bushnell, who was not involved in the new research.
The nature of the study limited what could be extrapolated about the links between stroke and heart risks, she said, and further research would be helpful.
Speculating about those possible links, Sposato said the heart and brain share deep neurological connections. Previous research shows brain damage from strokes and other causes can lead to heart damage.
Sposato, in fact, contributed to a 2019 study in rats showing a stroke in a part of the brain known as the insular cortex led to inflammation and other fibrosis in the heart.
“So now we know for sure that there’s a clear relationship between stroke and new heart disease, but we don’t know how it happens,” he said. If scientists could unlock the ways a stroke triggers heart problems, it could eventually lead to new ideas for how to prevent them.
Meanwhile, he said, health care providers should be aware of the risk and “very actively” watch for coronary symptoms or hidden heart disease in people who recently had strokes, “because that might be another way of preventing cardiovascular events.”

Cape Town – The Hurricanes were clear-cut winners over the Stormers at Newlands on Saturday … well, only for cheap shots and their bewildering ineptitude, in no special order.
Altogether more nobly and relevantly, John Dobson’s home charges triumphed in the columns that mattered: on the scoreboard, where the Super Rugby opener produced an unexpectedly wide 27-0 outcome in their favour, and for their superior devotion to the spirit of rugby union.
But the result came at a significant price for the Capetonians, a phenomenon at least partly attached to the cynical approach of their usually more revered and entertainment-minded foes.
While they will be chuffed by the four tries in their favour, the bonus-point nature of the victory and the rare defensive shut-out to nil of a New Zealand team, the Stormers and their supporters suffered the mortifying experience of their World Cup-winning captain Siya Kolisi only lasting 25 minutes before a late tackle caught him awkwardly off balance and unsuspecting, and may have caused ligament damage to a knee.
Later, and this time at least not linked to the rash of foul play from the ‘Canes, who boiled over in a variety of senses in the summer heat, another of their prize Boks in hooker Bongi Mbonambi – who had started his season in the competition for 49 minutes with admirable zest – was similarly forced off.
His was one of those accidental occurrences at a fiercely-contested breakdown where a player’s leg can get jammed at a bad angle and with excessive weight from other combatants coming onto it.
The stick of dynamite who is Mbonambi looked extremely uncomfortable when helped off, and Dobson and his lieutenants may have to brace themselves for medium-term absences (at best, possibly?) of both key warriors.
The Stormers do have a fairly wide array of squad cover in loose forward resources, and two starters there in Pieter-Steph du Toit and Jaco Coetzee were immense contributors to a victory in which they squeezed the life out of the Wellingtonians – general pack superiority a major factor – like a large, merciless jungle serpent.
But the situation in the important berth of hooker could turn more worrisome if Mbonambi can’t return soon.
Being able to call on the services of experienced, talented back-up Scarra Ntubeni is a comfort, but bear in mind that he has his own legacy of major injury setbacks: this would be a wonderful time for the wheel of fortune to suddenly turn more kindly in favour of the popular camp member.
Should Ntubeni struggle to handle the regular pressure of starting for a necessarily protracted period, or his personal jinx strike again, a much deeper problem comes to the fore.
Ramone Samuels was a long-term injury casualty last season, and his lineout throwing has a reputation for inconsistency even when fit, while Chad Solomon is more renowned for his run-around qualities than scrummaging power (a department the Stormers pride themselves on, as they simply reminded on Saturday) and muscularity in the tight-loose.
Hearts would have been in mouths in the home booth, too, when Ntubeni was crudely shoulder-charged to the throat and sent sprawling to the turf for a minute or to by ‘Canes substitute forward Vaea Fifita, who became the second visiting player to be yellow-carded … and certainly flirted with red for the offence.
Stormers flyhalf Damian Willemse was subjected to regular doses of roughhouse treatment – enough to suggest a premeditated tactic? – from the Hurricanes, while flanker Du’Plessis Kirifi was very clearly caught on camera applying fingers across the face of Du Toit during a one-on-one altercation.
The New Zealanders were so weirdly ill-focused on executing orthodox rugby skills (or often enough mere basics) correctly that you have to be careful not to hand out excessive salaams to the Stormers for this performance.
But they were very good indeed, bristling with constructive intent right across the park for large chunks of the match in gruelling conditions, and jack-in-a-box young Bok scrumhalf Herschel Jantjies significantly eclipsing his opposite number and more seasoned All Black TJ Perenara, the ‘Canes captain on a thoroughly forgettable day for them.
Yes, there were times when the Stormers looked a little too lateral and predictable in hand-to-hand play, but their mauling and scrambling was top-drawer.
It certainly took some doing to ensure a zero-points shutout for a Hurricanes team who were narrowly-beaten semi-finalists by the Crusaders last year and fourth highest try scorers from 2019’s ordinary season …

PRETORIA, Saturday 1 February 2020 – The South African Revenue Service (SARS) has embarked on a journey to reimagine a future revenue authority where increasingly its work will be informed by data-driven insights, self-learning computers, artificial intelligence and interconnectivity of people and devices.
SARS’ workforce will be empowered to optimally function within this exciting changed and changing world of work.
Commissioner Kieswetter emphasizes: “We cannot ignore the power of a data and technology enabled organization, and the impact it will have on the future world of work. We can however prepare for it by consciously and actively managing the interplay between human effort and artificial intelligence. Today we take a conscious step towards building a smart modern SARS, with unquestionable integrity, that is trusted and admired.”
The SARS of the future must be able to respond to this new environment while fulfilling the organization’s Higher Purpose of enabling Government to build a capable state that will ensure the wellbeing of all South Africans.
Since joining SARS in May last year, Commissioner Edward Kieswetter has constantly emphasized the need to boost the organization’s technological capacity and deriving insights from data, for a ‘re-imagined SARS of the future’.
The Commissioner has also been on an extensive consultation campaign with staff which has redefined SARS’ strategic objectives. This has created a need for a high-level internal and external recruitment drive to attract highly talented professionals and executives to bring SARS up to speed with advances in big data and artificial intelligence in the tax and customs environment.
SARS’ strategic objectives include, amongst others, providing clarity and certainty of tax obligations, making it easier for taxpayers and traders to comply, detecting those who do not comply and making it hard and costly for them. The organization is also in the process of modernizing its systems to provide digital and streamlined services and rebuild public trust and confidence in the tax and customs administration.
As a result, SARS has advertised strategic leadership positions to attract talented and passionate executives to fill the roles of Chief Data Scientist, Chief Technology Innovation Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Procurement Officer, Director Business Segment: Large & International Taxpayers (formerly Large Business Centre), Director Individual Segment: Wealthy & Complex Taxpayers, and nine regional Directors as well as a Director: Taxpayer Engagement, to list a few.
SARS is keen to grow and develop internal staff by recruiting some of these positions from within, but the Commissioner also want to use this opportunity to enrich the current “gene pool” with future oriented skills and some fresh perspective.
“This recruitment process will reaffirm SARS’ commitment to the transformation agenda of our country and the advancement of employment equity and diversity in the workplace,” the SARS Commissioner said.
Kieswetter added that “We cannot simply talk about the Fourth Industrial Revolution. It is upon us, and we must redouble our efforts to future proof ourselves by building an intelligent organization that will provide a world-class service to compliant taxpayers, but equally detect those who are non-compliant and make it costly and hard for them”.
“Our Vision 2024 is to build a smart modern SARS, with unquestionable integrity, trusted by government, the public and our international peers,” he concluded.
