A mother in South Africa, Racquel ‘Kelly’ Smith, has been sentenced to life in prison for selling her 6-year-old daughter, Joshlin Smith, to a traditional healer for £800, leading to the child’s disappearance since February. Joshlin’s grandmother, Amanda Smith-Daniels, expressed despair over her grandchild’s fate, as the court revealed that the mother had a history of drug abuse and neglect. Witnesses testified that Smith confessed to selling Joshlin and hinted she might have been taken to West Africa, while the search for the missing girl continues.
