Umndeni kaNothani Njilo (20), umfundi we-Grade 11 eSibalukhulu High School eHlokozi, eHighflats, ukhathazekile ngokushaywa nokubulawa kwakhe okusolwayo. UNjilo ulandwe ngabantu abahamba nenduna yendawo, bemsola ngokuthi ubambe iqhaza ekugqekezweni kwendawo edayisa utshwala. Umndeni wakhe uthi induna nezinye izinsizwa zamthatha emzini wakhe, zamshaya phambi komama wakhe, zamlimaza kabi.
Ngokusho kwesihlobo, uNjilo washaywa waze waphelelwa ngamandla, nakuba azamile ukuzivikela ethi akabandakanyeki ekugqekezweni. Ngemuva kokumshaya, wathathwa walaliswa esihlahleni, baqhubeka nokumhlukumeza. Amaphoyisa afika esehlezi kabi, kodwa esikhundleni sokumletha esibhedlela, amthathe amyisa esitokisini, kungenjalo umndeni uqaphela ukuthi wayelimele kanzima.
Umndeni ukhala ngokuthi induna, esikhundleni sokulamula, yahamba phambili ekuqhutshweni kwalokhu kuhlasela. Baphinde bakhathazeka ngokuthi amaphoyisa awazange anakekele kahle uNjilo ngokumthathela esitokisini esikhundleni sokumuyisa esibhedlela.
