"The MEC believes that we have lost a person who has not only committed to helping himself but also developing other people. It is extremely unfortunate that he lost his life under such tragic circumstances - and a huge loss to the department and community, " the department's Noluthando Nkosi said.
Cases of murder and attempted murder are being investigated.
