Woman crushes her children with a rock in the act of obeying the word of God

A young woman identified as Mary Rukobo has been arrested by the police in Muzokomba, Zimbabwe, for grabbing her children aged two months and two years respectively by the legs and bashing their heads against rocks.

According to eyewitnesses who spoke to local news platforms, the 24-years old mother misinterpreted Psalms 137 verse 9 after reading it in isolation instead of reading the entire chapter to get the correct context. The scripture reads: “Happy is the one who seizes your infants / and dashes them against the rocks.”

The two-month-old baby died on the spot while her sibling is battling for life in a hospital. When interrogated, Mary claimed she heard a “divine voice” instructing her to carry out the act.
