Bizarre case: Frederiksen faces court after 21 mutilated vaginas were found in his fridge (warning: disturbing images)

South African women’s groups are in an uproar with the case drawing attention to the painful practise of women’s circumcision

Danish national Peter Frederiksen, aged 63, has appeared in a South African court facing charges of sexual assault and violation of female genetalia after severed vaginas of 21 women were found in a freezer in his home. The police discovered the bizarre collection in September, however Frederiksen is pleading innocent. He says the claims are unfounded.

Frederiksen says his wife – Anna Matseliso Molise, aged 28 – got the vaginas from witchdoctors. He says that his wife uses the vaginas, not he, and claims that he knew nothing about the horrific haul of women’s genetalia. He believes that she had wanted to sell the body parts.

On her part, Molise, says that her estranged husband – a gun shop owner – not only collected other women’s vaginas but also mutiated her own after drugging and incapacitating her.
