Sibiya says he was driving back from the garage where he had gone to buy snack for a handyman who was fixing his DStv at his home.
“I told them that if they are so desperate to get something they have not worked hard for, then they must shoot me because I was not going to open the door,” Sibiya told Sunday World.
The thugs made off with an iPhone worth R16 000 and other items that were in Sibiya’s other car which was parked in his drive way.
“The criminals stood outside my car shouting at me to get out. You should have seen the anger on their faces when I refused,” Sibiya added.
A case has been open at Bramley Police and no arrests have been made so far as police continue to investigate.
