Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>A 23-year-old Gauteng man is standing accused of killing his 29-year-old brother, allegedly after a fight over food.<\/p>\n

Jabu Mduduzi, 23, allegedly stabbed his brother, Dumisani Mduduzi, 29, in the chest in their Evaton West home in the Vaal on Sunday, before attempting to take his own life.<\/p>\n

Gauteng police spokesperson Colonel Mavela Masondo said: “It is reported that on Sunday, 28 May 2023, at about 21:00, two brothers were at their house in Evaton West Ext 11.<\/p>\n

“They allegedly fought over food, and the suspect stabbed the deceased once in the chest with a knife. The victim was declared dead on the scene.”<\/p>\n

According to a witness, who did not want to be named, the deceased’s girlfriend had called him to the “bloody scene”.<\/p>\n

He said:<\/p>\n

According to him, people searched the yard and later found a bread knife next to some plants.<\/p>\n

He said Dumisani was not supposed to die like this.<\/p>\n

“This happened to the wrong person. He shouldn’t have died like this. We didn’t expect he’d leave us like this…<\/p>\n

“I’m sure his parents still don’t believe it. They’ve lost both sons; one to the law, and one has left them for good.<\/p>\n

“Dumisani didn’t bother anyone. He was a hardworking man. Now he’s no longer and his children will grow up without a father. I still can’t believe it.”<\/p>\n

Jabu appeared in the Sebokeng Magistrate’s Court on Monday on a charge of murder.<\/p>\n

Gauteng National Prosecuting Authority spokesperson Lumka Mahanjana said the case was postponed to 14 June for a formal bail application.<\/p>\n
