This is according to the grandmother of Simphiwe Sibeko, a 14-year-old grade 9 pupil at Aurora Girls' High School, who never made it home after leaving to buy snacks.

The latest teenager to be raped and murdered in Jabulani, Soweto, was a good child who spent a lot of time indoors and was a top achiever at school.

"On Thursday it happened that she was going to the local spaza shop. She asked me if she should bring me snacks because we always shared everything," said Joyce Sibeko.Attempts to locate the teen were unsuccessful and she couldn't be reached on her phone. Sibeko struggled to fight back tears as she detailed her last moments with her only grandchild, with whom she lived.

May her soul rest in peace ..💔💔

Why was she out Are snacks essential, oh well. she is dead now, and her family must live with the fact that they caused this!!!! PlayStupidGmaesGetStupidPrizes

This is heartbreaking. Rest in peace Golden Girl.

The irresponsibility of parents is disgusting who allows a child to go out and buy snacks during lockdown? Rest young one.

This is heartbreaking 😪

Eish this is so sad 😢😢😢I'm a father of a 13yrs old girl I can't imagine life without her.... May her soul rest in peace🙏🙏🙏

who buys snacks during lockdown. r snacks essential. other gal went to internet cafe is cafe essential hhayi bathong

No one is safe when it comes to these heartless monsters. How long are we going to suffer for having vaginas ? Crime is getting out of hand! Last year we saw a spate of these incidents, I would thought Bheki Cele was going to beef up police visibility everywhere.🤯🤬

My heart into 1000 pieces, especially on how she was brutally killed. There is no bush there, its between the houses and field from pictures i saw.Somebody heard the screams of help from this soul, and decided to keep quiet or got scared. Best detectives must find these monsters.

Bheki Cele must deploy TRT to hunt and kill those responsible, they must die in a hail of bullets, that's the only justice here no court is needed

We as Sowetans have to bring back the necklace. We can't have this happening under our noses.

💔💔

You know , life and the laws that govern people are a big scam.

I actually want the military to hunt these f$/&rs down and shot them dead We're sick and tired now

The police should do all they can to find the murderer ;the rapist ,the monister; they should make sure he is arrested and he should face the full might of the law

☹️

If she had a phone can the police track the phone

Such a beautiful soul. May she rip! DeathPenalty

R.i.p bbe girl

Such a detailed heading... Wow 😳
