Chinekee!

This young man from a well to do family and been to one of the prestigious schools in KZN is a total disappointment. Perhaps SA's corrections system will give him a second chance. But wish that he does not waste the SAPS's, prosecution's and and court's time take it as a man.

Aah!! Le yena

imagine loosing your job that allows you to buy a benz over woolies cake

It was hardly people from poverty areas that looted. It's the well to do ones who looted the most. In the end, people from poverty areas actually suffered more when there was nothing left for them.

There is no alleged here! Caught on camera, guilty.

If only politicians could this we would be far as a country

Not so funny now.

Slow conscience

Mxm

He is learning from his mistakes, thats what stupid people do.

Ah shem!

Advantageous move...

If comrades could loot with impunity then what about those who looks up to them?
