LGBTQI-Plus community in N West lives in fear due to increase of hate crimes: Botcheli

Police say the case has been referred to court where it will be determined if it should be handled as a murder or an inquest.

Although the police have opened an inquest case at this stage, LGBTIQ-Plus activists are not happy. Social For Justice International, which advocates for the LGBTIQ-Plus rights, shares the same sentiments as Moleme’s family. They say this is part of hate crimes committed against the community. “It is something that says to us, something is wrong somewhere and in the system there has to be something done. We have to push SAPS to continue investigating the case, we have to follow the justice system in terms of prosecution.”
