“She asked the white metro police officer, ‘Are you the one that shot my son?’ and he responded by saying, 'Ek het hom geskiet’.” Tembisa

“We need counselling. They shot him in front of us and our children. Can you organise that for us?” holding a beer quart in her hand, one of the three ladies, Lethabo*, asks.

Keeping an eye on two toddlers playing on the floor, the three ladies are sitting on crates, drinking alcohol, probably trying to drown the traumatic memories of the past couple of days.She first goes into one of the rooms, comes out and says, “Linda’s partner is in there. She says I can talk to you but she can’t. She says she is tired of people that have been coming to comfort her and wants to rest.

According to Lerato, during the commotion outside their yard, they stood by the wall and looked on. Linda was smoking while he was busy on the phone, which, she says, one of the police officers could have mistaken for Tshabalala taking videos of what was going on between the police and the protester.

“I think they thought he was taking a video because when people were taking videos they were saying ‘put that away, we don’t want videos. So, I think when the metro police officers shot, he thought he was taking a video,” she says. “You can see this wall is low, and we could see everything from inside. So, I think they shot him because they thought he was shooting a video because even on his phone there was a video that he took, but the strike was still starting before it became violent. He was standing this side. So, I think as he was busy with the phone, they thought he was taking a video and they shot at him.”
