“As we enter Woman’s Month, these barabaric and senseless killings remind us to be more vigilant in our struggle to ensure total liberation of women from the last vestiges of triple oppression,” says provincial spokesperson, Khumbudzo Ntshavheni.
He has called on all structures in society to come together and commit to defeat the ‘demon of women abuse and killings’.
“Our society must once again become more protective and caring towards its women and children,” he said.
Lim ANC have sent their condolences to the families and friends of the victims.
Meanwhile, police spokesperson Lt Col Moatshe Ngoepe says two suspects have been arrested for the murder of 62-year-old, Mamaila Maria Maluleke.
