The Community Policing Forum in Harare, Khayelitsha in the Western Cape, has condemned the killing of three people in what is believed to be a vigilante attack in the area in the early hours of this morning.

The three victims were burned beyond recognition in two incidents just after midnight. A fourth body was found in the area with multiple stab wounds, however police say it’s not clear if it’s related to the alleged vigilante attacks.

CPF Chairperson Mthetho Mahomba is calling for urgent intervention.

“We condemn the incident. Life lost is life lost, irrespective of who is involved or passed away. That person has a family, maybe children. No one deserves to die. The constitution of this country says everyone has a right to life.”
