A WOMAN who snatched a four-year-old girl from her home in Bulawayo and took her to Tsholotsho where she wanted to hand over the child to a cross border transport operator for human trafficking has been sentenced to five years in prison. Cynthia Tshuma (19) who used an alias, Simpiwe Mlilo, connived with a cross border transport operator (umalayitsha) identified as Ndumiso to kidnap the girl from her home in Emganwini suburb before keeping her captive in Tsholotsho for nine days. The court heard Tshuma was promised R500 on the delivery of the child but she lost communication with the umalayitsha until she got arrested. Source :Chronicle
