For the first time since her daughter’s half-clothed body was found slumped over a public toilet two weeks ago, Nowethu Mafevuka visits the site of the grim discovery. She says

Sinoxolo Mafevuka was found dead in a communal toilet in Town 2, Khayelitsha on Tuesday, 1 March 2016. She was last seen the night before and presumably left the shack she shared with her brother to relieve herself in a toilet just a few minutes’ walk away.

The path from her shack to the toilet winds through narrow alleyways between shacks, along a tar road and then through a dirt pathway to a row of City of Cape Town toilets with green doors. Sinoxolo’s mother says her daughter was 21 years old and not 19 as previously reported.

Nowethu Mafevuka told News24 Live she had not been to where her daughter was found since the incident. “It’s painful losing a daughter. I was informed by the neighbours,” said Nowethu sitting beneath a photograph of her daughter in the shack.

Sundowns star conned of nearly R500,000 in bogus franchise deal


Hlompho+Kekana

Mamelodi Sundowns star midfielder Hlompho Kekana was scammed of nearly half a million rands by an unnamed Pretoria woman who promised to partner the player in a bogus McDonald’s franchise deal.

The Zebediela-born and Bafana Bafana player told police he deposited R425,000 into the woman’s business account hoping to partner with her in the deal.

Soon after the money was deposited, the con woman disappeared without trace and ignored Kekana whenever he tried to make contact with her, Sunday World reported.

According to the report, Kekana agreed with the woman to finance a huge chunk of the franchise, which was going to operate in Pretoria.

After years without any communication with the woman, the Sundowns star opened a case of theft with Sinoville police, who confirmed to the Sunday tabloid that investigations are underway.

When the newspaper contacted him for comment, Kekana hung up and did not respond to questions sent to him via SMS.
