2. MaNdlo
Proving the old adage ‘too much love can kill you’ to be true, a hotel room in Zimbabwe was the scene of a thoroughly unfortunate incident for sex worker MaNdlo, and her ‘guest’ for the evening. The couple were halfway through whatever it is prostitutes and their clients get up to in hotel rooms – particularly tricky games of Scrabble, perhaps? – when MaNdlo suddenly keeled over on the floor and appeared for all the world to be dead. Staring in horror at the corpse and realizing that this wasn’t the kind of stiffening he had anticipated, the customer fled just before the cops arrived. As the police began to seal MaNdlo into a steel coffin, the prostitute woke up and shouted, “You want to kill me”. The gawking onlookers who had began to form outside the hotel room immediately fled in terror, along with a sizable proportion of Johnny Law, while MaNdlo herself was last seen being escorted across the street by a fellow sex worker, still ranting and raving at the top of her voice.
