A manhunt now? A bit late

Where's the anti-terrorism unit? Has this not been been declared an act of terror? Where are the MK people with their ground forces and guerilla training? Let's see just what they were doing in exile.

Are we going to have another empty coffins display and the the president with his cabinet attenting?

This is tragic.

Police must also investigate nhlanhla_lux_ he seems to know more than all of us about these killings. He also arrived quickly at the crime scene as if he was on standby to put the blame on foreign Nationals. I hope people didn't die to take the heat off a money launderer
