KZN MEC for Transport, Community Safety and Liaison, Willies Mchunu, has learnt with disappointment that another person was killed at Glebelands Hostel, in Umlazi, at the weekend.
Police have confirmed that a man was shot dead on Sunday and are investigating the matter.
Today (17 August 2015), Mchunu expressed great concerns at the developments at the Glebelands Hostel, urging anyone who might have any information that might lead to arrests of those responsible to come forward.
“These, are indeed, very sad news and a sad reminder that violence brings death, anger and hatred. We believe that the current conflict at the hostel could be peacefully resolved through a meaningful dialogue. The Department is available and ready to facilitate such a process,” said Mchunu.
