Ivumba elibi elivela kumlambo wasekuhlaleni, ekuqaleni kwakukholelwa ukuba libangelwa ziinapukeni ezilahliweyo, lakhokelela ekufumanekeni komzimba wendoda, 22, yaseMokopane, eLimpopo, ebilahlekile ukusukela ngosuku lonyaka omtsha.
UMalose Samuel Kgafela, osuka kwilali yaseSkilpad eMokamole, wagqityelwa ukubonwa ephila ngosuku lonyaka omtsha.
Umzimba wakhe wafunyanwa ngoLwesithathu, umhla wesixhenxe kweyoMqungu, kumlambo iMmetlane.
UKgafela wanyamalala emva kwemibhiyozo yonyaka omtsha, eshiya usapho lwakhe luxhalabile kwaye lufuna iimpendulo ngamandla.
Ethetha neIOL News, isithethi sosapho, uMable Mashatole, 44, uthe umhla wokuqala kweyoMqungu, yayilusuku lokugqibela apho usapho lambona ephila.
“Ndimgqibele ukumbona ngoLwesine, umhla wokuqala kweyoMqungu 2026, malunga nentsimbi yesibini emva kwemini kwilali yaseMakekeng,” utshilo uMashatole.
“Wayekunye nomhlobo wakhe. Bendidlula ngemoto ndisiya kwilali yaseMabula.”
Uthe babulisana ngaphambi kokuba aqhubeke nohambo lwakhe.
“Kukumgqibela kwam ukumbona ephila,” utshilo.
UMashatole uthe usapho aluzange luqale luxhalabe ngethuba uKgafela engabuyanga ekhaya ngobo busuku, lukholelwa ukuba kusenokwenzeka ukuba uye kwizalamane ezikufutshane.
Nangona kunjalo, ixhala lakhula xa engabuyanga ngosuku olulandelayo.
“Akangomntu onyamalala iintsuku ezimbini engabuyi ekhaya,” utshilo.
“NgoMgqibelo, umhla wesithathu kweyoMqungu, saqala ukukhathazeka.”
Usapho lwaqhagamshelana nezalamane ngeCawa, umhla wesine kweyoMqungu, kodwa akukho mntu wambonayo.
Ngaphandle kwefowuni yokumfumana, uKgafela wayelahlekelwe yifowuni yakhe kwiiveki ezidlulileyo, usapho lwabhenela kumakhasi onxibelelwano, lapapasha umfanekiso wakhe kwikhasi likaFacebook lwasekuhlaleni.
Emva kweentsuku zokukhangela, umhlali weza neendaba ezibuhlungu ngoLwesithathu.
“Umhlali weza ekhayeni lethu waza wasixelela ngevumba elinamandla nelinganyamezelekiyo elivela kumlambo iMmetlane,” utshilo uMashatole.
“Babecinga ukuba zisuka kwiinapukeni abantu abaziphosa apho, kodwa ivumba lazo laliqatsele ngendlela ekrokrisayo.”
Ngenxa yokuba uKgafela ebelahlekile kangangeentsuku ezininzi, usapho lwaya emlanjeni ukuya kuhlola.
“Njengoko besisondela, saqala safumana isihlangu sakhe,” utshilo uMashatole. “Kulapho ke sazi khona ukuba ulapho.”
Amapolisa abizelwe kwindawo yexhwayelo aza alanda umzimba.
UMashatole uthe uKgafela ufunyenwe esanxibe eza mpahla wayezinxibile ukugqibela ukumbona.
“Kubuhlungu. Besingazange sicinge ukuba singamfumana ebhubhile. Kude kube ngumzuzu wokugqibela, besinethemba lokuba singamfumana ephila,” utshilo ephefumlela phezulu.
Uthe uKgafela usandula ukuqala ukusebenza kwaye ebeqeshwe malunga neenyanga ezisibhozo.
Amapolisa aseLimpopo aqinisekisile ukuba kuvulwe iqwakuqwaku futhi uphando luyaqhubeka.
