A 44-year-old man with a pending murder case, reportedly ended his life last week after strangling as well as stabbing his 44-year-old wife at Kabokweni. Preliminary investigations suggest that this too, was a domestic violence related incident.
Provincial Commissioner, Lieutenant General Zuma has once again pleaded with members of the community to refrain from using violence to resolve domestic issues.
The General indicated that people should stop perpetuating domestic violence against women and children. They should evade violence but rather try to make use of available structures such as Social Workers, Traditional Leaders and other relevant structures to intervene as well as to resolve their matters amicably.
