Description: On the night of August 11, Mrs Lutya's oldest son, Wiseman, didn't come home. She heard nothing more of him. She spent the next two weeks going from police station to hospital to mortuary, searching for some news of her son - the household's major breadwinner. Finally, she was advised to take a photograph of him with her from mortuary to mortuary. She found him at Salt River. She still doesn't know what happened. Mrs Lutya has nine other children, eight of whom are still at school.
