Durban – Three KwaMashu friends have died after being doused with petrol and set alight by robbers, who were apparently annoyed that the victims did not have any money. The friends died an agonising death at the weekend, but not before they told their shocked families about their ordeal.
Anele Kubheka and Vusi Biyela, both 18, and Sthembiso Makhathini, 23, had just bought petrol from a local garage for a neighbour on Friday night when five gunmen pounced on them.
They took Makhathini’s BlackBerry phone but when they realised the trio had no cash on them, they poured the petrol over them and ignited it.
