My faith in justice burnt to ashes
THE case of the Bafana Bafana goalkeeper and captain, Senzo Meyiwa, has evoked tragic memories of the murder of my son and his wife in January 2015.
Wamukelwe and Wendy’s killing took place less than 100 days after Meyiwa was shot in the heart.
The young couple, at the height of their youth and success, were strangled to death inside the bedroom of their double-storey mansion in Bryanston.
Wamu was a multi-award winning chef and businessperson. Wendy was a high-flying corporate executive.
Five years later, police investigations have led nowhere. No one has been charged for what a neighbour described as “the most heinous crime in the history of the suburb”. The murder saw some families relocating.
The family have rarely received an SMS or a phone call to update them about developments, if any, around the case.
