An image of a woman’s dead body in a casket – presumed to be singer Zahara – has gone viral on social media.
And according to tweeps, the star’s sister is allegedly behind it. But is it a bad Photoshop, or is there any truth to it?
The 36-year-old entertainer died earlier this week amid liver complications.

While many were shocked at the picture of the star – real name Bulelwa Mkutukana – who died earlier this year, others were not convinced it was real.
By the looks of it, it’s easy to see that the image has been edited. The face of the singer has been superimposed on a woman lying in her casket.
“Bad photoshopping,” cried one tweep.
