There's high police presence and community members outside the KaBokweni magistrate's court ahead of the appearance of three people accused of killing Bontle Zethu Ditebogo Mashiyane.

The girlfriend is an aunt to siblings Silindile and Ntokozo Sifunda, who were killed in April 2019 in Mganduzweni.In June 2019, Sowetan reported how the tragic death of the Sifunda siblings led to the killing of a local pastor and his nephew.

Their houses were also torched after a local traditional healer, who was consulted by the community, ruled that Malomane and Mbuyane were involved in the murders of the two little sisters. “We came here to support the family of the little girl. We can't live in the community where there're people who kill our children. They must not get bail and they must reveal the market where they sell the body parts,” said community member Lawrance Mathebula.
