The manager of the Farm Animals Unit for the NSPCA, Grace de Lange, was asked by two men to follow them and they led her to the body of the deceased.
“I thought I was going to be shown a dead dog or something but, coming closer, I realised that it was too big for that, then saw that it was a human body lying there,” said a distraught Grace.
“It’s a terrible thing, a real shock to the system; it’s hard to even put into words.”
