SHAIN GERMANER
THE 14-year-old Joburg girl who spent almost three months recovering from the satanic ritual that left her critically injured has been discharged from hospital.
Kirsty Theologo, 18, and her younger friend were lured up the mountain near their homes in Townsview.
Kirsty was killed in a brutal incident during which she and her friend were tied down, doused with petrol and set alight, allegedly by a group of six young people.
Kirsty’s 14-year-old friend – who cannot be named because of her age – was badly burnt and had to receive numerous skin-graft operations just before the start of the festive season.
A source close to the case told The Star that although she had a limp, she was back at home and making good progress in her recovery.
The five young people allegedly responsible for the attack appeared in the Johannesburg Magistrate’s Court yesterday.
