even though i hardly sympathise with SA ladies when it comes to matters of fidelity to partners, i hope this lady is safe as taking someone's life for infidelity is criminal. but for those SA ladies who cannot close their legs, this is what you get for toying with a man's emotions. i wait for further details.

Whatever his problem was - he acted cowardly by taking her hostage. Should have bought a bottle of whisky and picked up a "take away".

Negotiations for over three hours. This guy could have co-operated with the police if he had a licensed gun. So he thought of kidnapping charge,pointing a firearm charge and unlicensed firearm charge, unlicensed ammunition charge. He knew that his asss was going to be jailed for more than 10 years. Good riddance though.

On Friday, Sowetan and other newspapers reported that the kidnapped girl's brother was shot and they they its her sister who was shot. Don't cook the truth please.
