Cosatu member Desmond Mochaki told Bosveld that justice is long overdue.
“It has been three years now that our comrades have passed away. The two men applying for bail said they have families to provide for, but what about the families of the murdered, their children are also suffering.”
Mochaki said the community is angry and he cannot guarantee what will happen if the two accused are granted bail.
