Only surviving victim of Hammarsdale massacre allegedly missing

COSATU provincial secretary, Edwin Mkhize, says this was one of the concerns the parents of the victims brought up during a visit to Hammarsdale, yesterday.  

According to police, five suspects arrived at a house in Georgedale on Friday night - and then proceeded to kill six people - while a seventh victim was injured and taken to hospital.   

Whoonga was also found at the home, and one of the victims had a pending possession of drug case against him. 

Mkhize says the families are very concerned about the missing victim.

"The other issue that they are raising - which seems to be an issue that is coming across from all of these families - is also a concern over the police, whom they are saying giving direction or assistance about what is being done about the loss of their loved ones," he said. 

KZN police could not confirm the incident, saying they do not want to jeopardise the investigation.
