Ward councillor Nhlanhla Shezi has condemned what he's called "deplorable acts of violence". 


"There is no reason for an act like this to take place in our society. 


"I wish to employ anyone that has any information regarding this to come forward and maybe firstly to identify the young women that have been victims of this and also to identify the criminals behind it.
