A woman and her two-year-old daughter have been found dead in their home in the Siyathemba informal settlement in Balfour, Mpumalanga.

Police made the gruesome discovery at the house on Monday.

The body of the 24-year-old woman was found on the kitchen floor. The girl’s body was found in the bedroom with an injury to the neck, said police spokesperson Brigadier Selvy Mohlala.

The woman’s five-month-old baby was found unharmed with his father.
