Yesterday, 21 June 2006, Patronella Mkona, became South Africa's first pro-life martyr - when she told her boyfriend that if he wanted to kill her baby he would have to kill her first:
A mother has paid with her life in defence of her unborn child.The boyfriend should face four charges of murder rather than three - the unborn child is also a person.A 35-year-old man is to face murder charges on Friday in connection with the triple killing of his girlfriend, their two-year-old toddler and her sister early on Wednesday.
He is suspected of gunning down 30-year-old Patronella Mkona, her sister, Charmaine Mkona, 35, and their daughter, Latoya, when she apparently refused to abort their second child.
