BIZARRE: Senegalese Mother Burns Her Children Alive

An African mother living in Belgium, allegedly burnt her three young daughters to death. Whiles the girls were BURNING to death, she called their father on the phone and said, ‘Listen to their screams’.



Madysson, 6, Abbygail, 4, and Oumy, 2, died in the blaze at their home in the small town of Lennik, Belgium. Their mother Thioro Mbow, 35, allegedly killed them in an arson attack after locking them in a shed on Wednesday and burning them alive – while forcing their dad to listen as they died.

    ‘You’d better hurry but you will be too late to rescue them. They won’t survive.’

Mr Ulin immediately called his sister who lives nearby, in a panic and asked her to hurry to the family home. When she arrived at the scene, she found the charred bodies of Mr Ulin’s daughters in the garden.

Mbow is said to have calmly told her:

    ‘Ten minutes of screaming and then it was all over.’

Mbow has been arrested on suspicion of murder, German media has reported. The couple had reportedly been involved in a custody battle over the children.

It is believed that she started the blaze in a fit of rage after receiving a letter from her husband’s lawyer demanding custody of the children.

Mbow’s eldest daughter Dyarra, a child from a previous relationship, survived. The nine-year-old had been at school at the time.

The heartbroken father told Senenews:

    ‘Just before I left for work, I hugged the youngest who was already awake. I still cannot believe what happened,’ he added.
