A 20-year-old woman is recovering in a Durban hospital after police stormed into a flat to rescue her on Tuesday.
Images of Maistry's horrific injuries were posted on social media just hours after she was rescued, sparking outrage in Mariannridge in Pinetown where she was allegedly “held hostage”.Her mother, Michelle Maistry, told SowetanLIVE's sister publication TimesLIVE that when she got to the flat, she could not believe her eyes.
“My son became physically ill when he saw his sister. He has been vomiting. I feel like this is not our reality but I want justice for my daughter and we will not rest until she gets it.” “It is alleged that on June 2 at 8am, a 20-year-old woman was assaulted by a known suspect at Mariannridge. She was taken to hospital for medical attention. A 37-year-old suspect was arrested and charged with attempted murder. He appeared in the Pinetown magistrate’s court yesterday,” she said.Meanwhile the community has planned a march to fight for justice for Maistry. The march is scheduled to take place on Saturday.
