After Man Caught Stealing What they did to him will Shock (Read Details)


A man identified as Mafologela Mataung, has been
forced to kill himself.
Daily Sun SA reports that Mafologela was allegedly
caught stealing recently and an angry mob got hold of
him afterwards.
They then took the 22-year-old man to his parents’
house, where they handed him a rope – and forced him
to hang himself!
The shocking incident reportedly happened in
Botshabelo, near Hoedspruit in Limpopo, South Africa
early last week after residents questioned Mafologela.
Police spokesman Sergeant Livhuwani Mulaudzi said
people accused him of housebreaking.
“We condemn what the people did. Taking the law into
their own hands is a crime. At the end of the day they
end up being arrested.
“We understand that the suspected thug was forced to
hang himself. It is a murder investigation and those who
participated will be arrested,” he said.
Mulaudzi said the police are worried that this trend
could escalate as it was the second time a suspect had
been forced to kill himself.
“We again appeal to communities to first call the police
whenever they apprehend a suspect so that justice can
be done.”
Five people who were part of the incident were arrested
on Thursday and briefly appeared in the Hoedspruit
Magistrates Court.
They will appear again this Thursday for their formal
bail application.
