Kubanjwe abarhanelwa abahlanu (5) emva kokufunyanwa kwemoto ebiweyo kwikhaya likaNelson Mandela eHougton, eRhawutini.
Abarhanelwa abahlanu, kuquka omnye wabazukulwana bowayesakuba nguMongameli uNelson Mandela, bazakuvela kwinkundla kamantyi yaseRhawutini ngoLwesihlanu (10) kweyoMqungu 2024. Ezi zityholo zinxulumene nokufunyanwa kwesithuthi esiqweqwedisiweyo kwindawo yosapho lakwaMandela eHoughton, eRhawutini.
Oku kubanjwa kwenzeke ngentseni yangoLwesithathu kwindawo eyayifudula ilawulwa yinkokeli yoMzantsi Afrika engasekhoyo. Phakathi kwabo babanjiweyo bekukho amadoda amane kunye nebhinqa, ababeqeshe le ndawo.
Isithethi seSebe lamaPolisa kuMasipala waseRhawutini uXolani Fihla uchaze iimeko ezikhokelele ekubanjweni kwaba bantu.
“Amagosa adlulela kwindawo yokuhlala eHoughton, eyayifudula iphantsi kowayesakuba nguMongameli uNelson Mandela. Akungena kule ndawo, amapolisa athatha isithuthi esiqweqwedisiweyo aze abamba abantu abahlanu: amadoda amane kunye nebhinqa elinye,” utshilo uFihla.
Imoto ekuthethwa ngayo ibiqweqwediswe ngumqhubi we-Uber eNorwood kwangoko ngoLwesithathu.
Kufunyenwe uMpu ongenaPhepha-mvume kunye neMpahla ebiweyo. Ukubanjwa kwakhona kwakhokelela ekufumaneni ubungqina obongezelelweyo kwipropati.
“Ugqogqo olwalandelayo lwakhokelela ekufumaneni umpu omnye ongenalayisenisi. Ulwazi lwangaphambili lubonisa ukuba lo mfazi uhlala kule ndawo ugxamesile kwaye uqhelene nabarhanelwa abathathu abangamadoda,” utshilo uFihla.
Ugqogqo luqhube lwabhaqa intaphane yezixhobo zeziyobisi kunye nempahla ebiweyo. Abasemagunyeni bachaze ukuba ezinye izityholo zinokongezwa kwidokhethi yabarhanelwa.
Esi sehlo sivuse ingqwalasela ebanzi, kujongwe uqhagamshelo lwepropati nomongameli wokuqala wedemokhrasi waseMzantsi Afrika. Iinkqubo zomthetho ngoLwesihlanu ziya kugqiba amanyathelo alandelayo kuphando.
