‘A mysterious man stays in a hole near Pampierstad’


By Obakeng Maje
Pampierstad- Some of the residents at Motsweding village, near Pampierstad in Northern Cape suspect some of the residents were dupes of their own zeal and credulity when told about a mysterious man who stays in a hollowed place.

They decided to come and see it with their own eyes and even though some seem pretty understanding, still strain the bounds of uncertainty.

Lebogang Modise who suffers from autism lives in a pit. According to information, Modise who does not have family no anyone to turn to, arrived in Motsweding village more than a year ago.

“He has been living in that place since then. It is alleged that Modise was left there by police who found him near a farm in Vryburg” our mole said.

Ward councillor Letlhogonolo Wesi said they once approached Social Development for assistance, but their attempt were futile.

“The Social worker were approach said they could not help as Modise does not have any particulars that can identify him, so there is nothing they can do” Wesi said.

Modise who is between 30-40 years seems calm and tried to communicates with us, but nothing that make sense came from him as most of the time looks like a lost soul.

He covered the pit with bottles and he cannot tell where he gets foods.-TDN
