A mother allegedly locked her three daughters in a shed and burned
them alive while her husband was forced to listen at the end of a phone.
It's
claimed Thioro Mbow phoned her husband on his mobile and said: "Listen
to their screams..." as his three precious children perished in the
flames.
Husband Hellmut Ulin, 38, a foreman on a building site 12
miles away, listened in horror as his wife allegedly told him: "I can
hear their screams but I will do nothing to save them.
"You'd better hurry but you will be too late to rescue them. They won't survive."
Devastated: Husband Hellmut Ulin, 38, the father of the three daughters set on fire by their mother Thioro Mbow
The 35-year-old wife, who had earlier received a legal letter
from her husband's lawyer demanding custody of the children, went on:
"I will never surrender my children to you."
The girls' father
jumped into his car and raced back to his home in Lennik, a small town
near Brussels, Belgium, while phoning his sister who lives nearby to
hurry round to the house.
But it was too late to save his daughters Omy, two, Abbygail, four, and Madyson, six.
All
he found were their charred and lifeless bodies with their mother
standing near the still smoking garden shed where it's claimed she
calmly told him: "Ten minutes of screaming and then it was all over."
The
only survivor was an elder daughter, nine-year-old Dyarra - a child
from the mother's previous relationship - who was at school.
Killed: The scene of the fire where the three daughters Omy, two, Abbygail, four, and Madyson, six, perished in Belgium
Her deeply shocked husband said: "I had the letter sent by a court bailiff. I wanted to give her a fright."
Family friend Viviane van Eeckhoudt, who accompanied the sister to the scene said: "There was no chance to save the little ones.
"The shed was stuffed with paper and the flames were so fierce. It was a horrible death.
"We saw the mother at the scene. There were no tears in her eyes and she did not seem to be in a panic."
The 35-year-old mother has been arrested on suspicion of murder and taken in for questioning, DeMorgen news reported.
A post mortem examination was due to take place today on three children, to determine the cause of death.
