In the wake of this viral video, Mzansi weighed into the matter with its two cents. Several social media users expressed disgust after watching the video and could not fathom how the thugs would just mercilessly kill the man.
However, several social media users flooded the comments section to air their disbelief and anger towards the government for not punitively punish offenders and protecting foreign nationals. Of late South Africa seems to be a safe haven for many nationals who are seeking a better life.
However in recent years that hasn’t been the case since they have been targeted by thugs who rob off their business and victims of xenophobia attacks. Here are some of the comments.
“They should rather just take his stuff and go, rather than take his life”, commented one social media user.
However, the incident is said to have happened in the heart of Pretoria.
They are not scared of killing innocent ppl bcoz they know if they arrested they going to paradise (SA prisons) or getting bail. This is painful how do you kill a human being like that. May his soul RIP.
