The woman was shot three times yesterday by unidentified men after refusing to let the police in South Africa protect her in a safe house.

It was Molise who informed the police on September 17 that Frederiksen had female genitalia, including her own, in his freezer

The police in Lesotho have yet to give a statement about the killing.
