JOYINA Msiza says the family seeks justice for the late Fikile Pinky Msiza (36).
According to Joyina (42) from Newtown in Mamelodi East, her sister suffered a painful death and did not deserve such a fate.
He revealed that Fikile was stabbed and killed, allegedly by her boyfriend in Kameeldrift, Tshwane, on Sunday, 2 June 2024. She was laid to rest on 8 June in Limpopo.
"My sister was stabbed with a sharp object behind her ear and was also hit with a brick," he explained.
Joyina claimed that before the stabbing, there was a fight between them.
"My sister was in an abusive relationship for almost a year," he noted.
He claimed that the boyfriend couldn't accept the breakup and decided to take Fikile's life, adding that although they both lived in the Kameeldrift informal settlement, they resided in separate places.
"We demand justice and insist on no bail for the killer of our family member," he declared.
He shared that the family is struggling to cope with the painful incident and that he will never forgive him. He also noted that Fikile had two daughters, aged eight and 15, who were not related to the boyfriend.
