The Centurion Record reported that a Laudium ‘mafioso’ was killed and another man injured during a shooting near Presley’s in Boksburg on Tuesday night.
The publication named the dead man as Ziyaad Janoo, and added that he gained popularity after featuring in a viral video, ‘Chicky Lamba’, in which he and his friends kidnapped a man and threatened him with a gun in 2014.
The Gauteng Provincial Police could not be drawn to comment on whether or not yesterday’s shooting near Presley’s in North Rand Road involved drugs.
CONFIRMED: Ziyaad Janoo from Pretoria has been shot dead in Boksburg. A 2nd man was wounded. Janoo featured in the "Chicky Lamba" video.
