  • So Segametsi was taken to a hill and a cloth was put in her mouth so she couldn't shout. She was killed by three men, and the one took the anus. The other parts were the breasts, vagina, and the tongue. She was heard crying during the night saying, "M., leave me alone, how can you kill me, I know you." (en)
  • They picked this girl, who was a clever girl and a good student, because she was poor and they thought no one would make a fuss if she disappeared. (en)
