Local father vows to avenge his son’s death

The Protea Magistrate’s Court heard the matter of Nqobile Ndlovu and Mthunzi Mzwakhe Zulu, who appeared back in court on Friday.

Emotional scenes played out in full view of the courtroom.

Zolile Zondo, father of Nqobizitha Zulu who lashed and attacked the accused, said he could not contain his anger as it was the first time he saw the accused since the incident.

Zondo, who was in prison at the time of the incident, blames the mother of his six year old son, Nomthandazo Zulu for his murder.

He claimed that she should be charged with negligence of the minor.

“He died while I was in prison after his mother had me falsely arrested that I kidnapped and raped her.

“I was informed during my time in jail that my son had died. I don’t know what my boy ever did to deserve this.

“Nomthandazo knows what they did, It is her family who committed this atrocious killing.

“She had me arrested for no reason because she wanted to smoke drugs and neglect the kids,” an emotional Zondo told Urban News outside the proceedings.

In a fury, Zondo said there was no one else to fight for his son except himself, vowing that he would avenge the death of his son.

“If Nomthandazo is not arrested, I will kill her with my bare hands. I don’t care if I end up in jail as long as I would have done right by my child. Even if the accused get convicted, that won’t bring my child back. I only see him in a picture or dream.”

A teary Nomthandazo Zulu could be heard yelling back that she was not responsible for the murder of her son, adding that Zondo persistently found her at fault.

Ndlovu( 50) and her partner Zulu (39) face murder charges in connection to the alleged brutal killings of Mduduzi Nqobizitha Zulu(5) and Tshiamo Rabanye (6) in White City in May.

The mutilated bodies were found a day after they were reported missing.

Ntombikayise Zondo added, “While we are frustrated at the delays and postponed of the case because we want justice done, we understand that things still do not make sense.

“The manner in which they were killed, it is only fair that they investigate it because we don’t have a lot of information.

“We still want to know why our child was killed. I still have a picture of his lifeless body. I don’t know how they sleep at night.”

The case was postponed to October 31 for further investigations.
