The child’s mother, still reeling from the shock, expressed the deep emotional scars that the family now has to bear. The pain is further magnified by the fact that this tragedy occurred just days after the joyous birth of their daughter.

The Phalane family, in the midst of celebrating the arrival of Tumi Kobe and Ditebogo Phalane Senior’s first daughter, now finds themselves mourning the loss of their eldest son.

Flora Phalane, the child’s grandmother, who is 55 years old, expressed her sadness at the fact that the newborn has been deprived of a sibling. She shared, “We were so happy because they were blessed with an infant. She is only five days old.”

Flora Phalane is struggling to come to terms with the brutal murder of her grandson and believes that the rule of law needs to be strengthened to prevent such tragedies from recurring.

“The rule of law needs to be strengthened so that we don’t go through this again. This is not right. I’m trying to be strong but I’m not. I’m only here because I have to be strong for my son and his wife.”

As funeral arrangements are being made, the grieving grandmother fervently hopes that the police will swiftly apprehend the perpetrators responsible for this heinous act. The family yearns for justice to be served, so that no other family has to endure the pain and anguish they are currently experiencing.

The devastating loss of a young life in such a senseless act of violence highlights the urgent need for a strengthened rule of law.

The Phalane family, along with their community, demand justice for their beloved child. This tragic incident serves as a stark reminder of the importance of ensuring the safety and security of our communities.
