A MAN who covered his face with a farmer’s wife’s panties while robbing the family at gunpoint was sentenced to 10 years in jail in the Nelspruit regional court on Friday. Nkosinathi Sibiya (19) and an accomplice, who was shot dead during his arrest, broke into a farmhouse in Malelane last April while the family was out shopping. The family returned to find the men wearing the mother’s panties on their heads. The farmer, his wife, and 12-year-old son were tied up while the men loaded their booty into the family’s car.
