Heroine stabbed to death trying to protect disabled teen CapeTimesSA
Cape Town – Janet Ntozini, 18, was stabbed three times in the back at the weekend when, according to a witness, she had told a 23-year-old man he could not attack an unarmed, disabled 19-year-old man over a disagreement they had.
“We are grieving. It was so brutal and sudden. She was just a schoolgirl standing up for another person,” Sigonyela said. The school’s governing body chairperson, Simone Beukes, said Ntozini had been able to rise above her social circumstances and had been headed for a bright future.“We received the news of her death with great sadness, Janet had shown so much potential to succeed in whatever she chose to do in life. Her murder again shows the dangerous reality our children have to face every day,” Beukes said.
