Thieves Fall Asleep After Stealing From Old Woman’s House

Two thieves met their waterloo as they fall asleep during a night robbery at an elderly woman’s house in South Africa.

According to locals, the unfortunate thieves were caught sleeping outside the old woman’s house in Hamanskraal, Pretoria, South Africa, just after they robbed her apartment.

Videos and photos making the rounds showed the thieves sleeping soundly while the granny and neighbour’s gathered.

Words from netizsns revealed that most homes in South Africa are specially fortified with charms known as muthi, and it’s what the old woman used to protect her house.

@Marke Jay wrote: “I know of this charm. It’s peculiar to South Africa.”

A South African Twitter user wrote: ”This muthi is called “Nyangomba” in my culture, even when doors are open the thieves can’t find way to go out, until they fall asleep.

“This muthi can make a thug to unmove when gets inside your yard.”
