MEC Mchunu condemned the killing of Ngobese and vowed that police will investigate this matter till the end.
“We condemn this senseless killing. At this stage we do not want to come to any conclusions but view this as a pure act of criminality. If there was any dispute there should have come to discuss things and resolve them amicably instead of resorting to violence because it can never solve anything.
