Gravedigger who defiled daughters, blamed it on poverty and evil forces gets multiple life sentences

A middle-aged man has admitted to repeatedly defiling his two daughters. The confession shocked many who had attended the court session, with some leaning forward to listen to him come clean on his ill deeds.

Salim Yusuf Bashir, a gravedigger, was quick to point out that even God knew that he committed the heinous act against his children, but that it was all because poverty led him to seek help from dark forces. The forces, he said, plunged him into trouble.
