Thando Biyela, who's with the KZN Department of Community Safety, says MEC Sipho Hlomuka's calling on community members and political parties to work with investigators.
"We also want to unmask those who plotted and masterminded this killing. As a government, we remain committed to enforcing the laws that govern this country. We are not going to allow lawlessness to be the order of the day.
"Hlomuka also urges members of the community to allow police space and time to conduct a thorough investigation to ensure that an arrest and prosecution is effected. He also pleads for the public to assist law enforcement with information that will crack this case."
