A South African mother has been jailed for life, along with her two accomplices, after she sold her daughter to a traditional "healer" so her light eyes and skin could be cut out and used for medicine.

Racquel ‘Kelly’ Smith sold six-year-old Joshlin for 20,000 rand (£800) in February because the healer wanted her fair complexion and turquoise eyes.

The case shocked South Africa even further when it emerged that she would have accepted £200 for the child.

What! I believe that the woman was possessed! Not only that she is possessed, she is cruel, wicked and evil. She deserve to rot in jail. What a world we are living in?

Some persons seriously lack conscience, like their conscience is totally dead, imagine doing this to a child, your own child for that matter.

What a cruel parent. She could afford to sell her child just for a small money. At least she and her accomplices are jailed and sentenced for life imprisonment. It's better if she will be hanged and beheaded.
