Daily Sun (April 2) - THE short, sad life of Happy Sindane is over. The light-skinned youngster shocked Mzansi 10 years ago when he claimed he was a kidnap victim. HE WAS FOUND DEAD YESTERDAY WITH HIS HEAD CRUSHED! Just two weeks ago, Happy (29) said: "I would like to have a wife and maybe a couple of kids. But I need to sort out my life. It is in tatters. "How can I have a wife if I don't have a place of my own?" That's what he said to the SunTeam in Tweefontein, near KwaMhlanga, Mpumalanga.

In 2003, the blond Ndebele-speaking youngster amazed Mzansi with his claim that he was a white kid. He said a domestic worker kidnapped him from his home in Joburg. Now his dreams will never come true. Tweefontein resident Zodwa Mahlangu said she and her sister saw a bloody cap near her gate yesterday morning. Then they found the body face down.
