The Witness reports that a Pietermaritzburg traditional healer was gunned down on Friday during a consultation, allegedly by someone who posed as a client.
Mthokozisi Majozi (54) was in his room, which he rented at the back of Kismet Hotel property in Pietermaritzburg, when the incident occurred at around 3pm. According to a source, the person arrived at Majozi’s room and they greeted as if they knew one another. They both entered Majozi’s room, which he used for his business and closed the door. “A few minutes later, gunshots were heard. The ‘client’ was then seen fleeing the scene on foot,” the source reported. Majozi was found lying on his stomach in a pool of blood and had gunshot wounds to the top of his head, chest and abdomen. The hotel owner Ronnie Kisten said he was shocked at the news of Majozi’s death after speaking to him just hours before. He added that Majozi had been working as a traditional healer for the past 15 years and had healed many people.
