The son of a Ladysmith man who was robbed and murdered by two of his employees, says their actions not only devastated his family but left some 70 people without jobs.
Philani Mbhele and Sanele Madide have been found guilty of killing security company owner, Dawood Warasally.
They were sentenced to life imprisonment yesterday.
It's understood Warasally was attacked while busy paying wages in June 2016.

The NPA's Natasha Kara says Warasally was attacked after calling the duo to a vacant hotel to pay them their wages.
"When he arrived at the hotel he was severely assaulted by the two men."
"They used a spear, bricks and rocks and he died on the scene due to severe brain damage and extensive skull fractures. The two men stole his vehicle, all the wages and cellphone before fleeing the scene."
Warasally's body was found by his son at the back of the hotel
