Isiganeko samva nje senzeke eGorven Mbeki (Ezinyoka) eKwadwesi ngoMgqibelo (06 Juni 2026), apho abantu abane badutyulwe babhubha kwaye abanye ababini benzakele kakhulu. Ngokutsho kwamapolisa, ekufikeni kwindawo yesiganeko eMti Street, abo basabela kuqala bafumene amaxhoba amathathu, amabhinqa amabini kunye nendoda enye. Amaxhoba afunyenwe ngaphakathi endlwini enamanxeba okudutyulwa entloko nasebusweni. Babhengezwe ngabasebenzi bezonyango ukuba balandulele eli.
Ixhoba lesine, ibhinqa elalithuthelwe esibhedlele sendawo likwimeko embi, lasweleka kabuhlungu ngenxa yokwenzakala kwalo emva nje kokufika. Abanye abasetyhini ababini abasindileyo basalaliswe esibhedlele emva kohlaselo. Ababhubhileyo ngabasetyhini abathathu kunye nendoda enye.
Uphando lokuqala lubonisa ukuba amadoda amane angaziwayo, anxibe iibalaclavas ukufihla ubuwena bawo, angene kule ndawo aza afuna ukubona omnye wamaxhoba aswelekileyo. Kwakhona kuthiwa abarhanelwa bafune imali kwiqela ngaphambi kokuba bayalele wonke umntu owayelapho ukuba avule izicelo zebhanki kwiifowuni zabo. Emva koko abarhanelwa bavulela umlilo kumaxhoba baza babaleka nazo zonke iifowuni zamaxhoba.
