No jail time for Durban man who killed a man for kissing him DailyNewsSA
Durban - A Durban man has escaped with a suspended sentence after confessing to killing a man who made unwanted sexual advances on him and kissed him.
“He started touching me and pulling me towards him. I reprimanded him and told him to stop. He continued. He was caressing my left thigh in an upward and downward motion. He was also touching my beard and caressing my neck. While doing this he was talking, asking me if we could become lovers,” said Madlala in his plea statement read in court.
Before they could finish the drinks, Buthelezi suggested they buy more alcohol. Madlala suggested they call it a day, and Buthelezi said he was worried about finding his way out of Chatsworth since he was not from the area. “After I struck him he sat still and remained quiet. I called out his name at least three times but he did not respond.”“I shook him for a while, but he did not respond,” he said.“At this point it dawned on me that he was dead. I was scared and did not know what to do. I decided to dump the body at a place where it would be found, near the river.”“I admit that I ought to have foreseen the possibility of him dying as a result of being hit in the neck,” he said.
