ICYMI GBV activist Hlengiwe Gambushe who uncovered sugar cane serial killer dies after a short illness.

The family of a women’s rights activist from Mthwalume on the KwaZulu-Natal south coast Hlengiwe Gambushe, has described her as a community activist that worked to ensure that women and children lived freely.

Hlengiwe Gambushe’s efforts to uncover the truth behind the murder of several women in her community would eventually lead to the arrest of serial killer Mafutha Khomo who committed suicide in police custody in 2020. “We have suffered a great loss as the family and the community. Hlengiwe played an active role in the community. She was fighting for the community. She spent most of the time away from home working with the community. She used to be invited by people who wanted her to resolve their issues. Her death leaves a huge void in the family and the community”, expressed Bhuyeni.

“Hlengiwe took a very firm stand against the abuse of women and children in this community. South Africa all know Hlengiwe about her role standing firm against people who were killing women in this area of Mthwalume. There’s too much void that is left since Hlengiwe is no more. But we are hoping that God will help us to recover in this community, because we have lost a hero.
