at his hometown in Lebowakgomo, outside Polokwane in Limpopo. Mphahlele was shot and killed last Sunday in Alexandra during the removal of dwellers from COVID-19 temporary accommodation containers.
The preliminary autopsy report has revealed that Mphahlele was hit by rubber bullets and live ammunition. EFF leader Julius Malema, while addressing mourners, described Mphahlele’s killing as a deliberate and calculated assassination. “Under democratic South Africa, we still have our own children being killed with live ammunition, and Mphahlele was not killed during the protest. He was actually assassinated, because if you follow the story, they waited for him to be isolated. When he moved away from his people to go and negotiate with the authorities, they shot him when they knew there would not be any witnesses. Today, no one has been arrested.
