Families were burying their loved ones who were killed during the recent riots in KwaZulu-Natal.

Families of the people who were killed during the recent riots through violence, criminality and alleged racial tension are burying their loved ones with heavy hearts.

Mhlongo said she will forever miss her humble and quiet son who had big dreams to help improve the situation at home and extend the house. Philisiwe Ngcobo and her family laid her brother Bhekinkosi Ngcobo to rest on Saturday at a cemetery in Mobeni. “No one gave us any update so far about any arrest in connection with the killing of my brother. I was given contacts of the investigating officer but I have not heard anything from him yet. I have little hope that perpetrators will be arrested. It’s been two weeks but nothing much has happened. I am pleading with the community of Phoenix to give police information about people who killed our loved ones,” said Ngcobo.
