A 27-year-old woman, Khanyisile Mndayi, is reportedly in a coma and critical condition after being stabbed over 20 times by her boyfriend in front of their children on Sunday.
The attack reportedly occurred at their residence in Berea, Johannesburg, South Africa.
According to a Facebook post by one Gillian Mogale, Mndayi arrived home late from her shift and was allegedly subjected to physical assault and ultimately stabbed multiple times by her boyfriend, identified as Bongani.
A non-profit organisation, Women For Change, working to combat gender-based violence and femicide in South Africa, said in a statement on Monday that the boyfriend fled the scene after locking the injured Mndayi and her children indoors.
