A mother who sold her six-year-old daughter to a 'healer' for just £800 has been jailed for life in South Africa.
Racquel 'Kelly' Smith, 35, was convicted of kidnapping and trafficking along with her boyfriend Jacquen Appollis and their friend Steveno van Rhyn.
Little Joshlin Smith, who has a fair complexion and turquoise eyes, disappeared last February after vanishing outside her home in Saldanha Bay, near Cape Town - and has not been seen since.
A court heard during the six-week trial how Smith was sought out by a 'healer' for her 'light eyes and skin', with the mother reportedly only receiving around £800 for her.
'On the human trafficking charge, you are sentenced to life imprisonment. On the kidnapping charge, you are sentenced to 10 years imprisonment,' Judge Nathan Erasmus told the trio.
