EWN reports that the United National Transport Union (UNTU) has condemned the killing of one of its members in Cape Town on Thursday morning, calling it a senseless murder.
Akhona Siduka, who was a Metrorail train security guard, was shot in a hijacking while on her way home on Wednesday night. The union’s general secretary Steve Harris said: “We’re supposed to be honouring this period of violence against women and here’s a woman that comes back from work and then she’s murdered.”
