Life sentences for Mpumalanga gang who killed Somali shop owner.


Pretoria - A gang who killed a Somali shop owner while robbing his store in Mdutjana, Mpumalanga, were given sentences in the High Court in Pretoria on Wednesday.

Sentencing Themba Mathibela, 33, Elias Skosana, 33, and Joseph Masombuka, 27, of KwaMhlanga for the June 2012 murder of Somali shop owner, Ahmed Salaad, Judge Mmonoa Teffo said the three had shown no contrition for what they did and were therefore not candidates for rehabilitation.

She sentenced the three to a further 20 years imprisonment on charges of robbery with aggravating circumstances and the illegal possession of two shotguns, a pistol and ammunition.

All sentences would run concurrently with the life sentence.


The gang went to Salaad's shop, Mike Supermarket, in the early hours and accosted him and his two friends who were sleeping in the shop.

Armed with shotgun

They first tried to break down the back door, but then gained entry through the front door as their victims tried to run away.

They forced the men back into the shop and robbed them of R2 500. Mathibela, armed with a shotgun, shot and killed the 26-year-old Salaad in front of his friends during the robbery. He died at the scene.

One of his friends ran away, while the other one managed to hide in the shop while the robbers continued to loot it.

Teffo said the victims had come to South Africa for a better life and to work for their families back home. The manner in which Salaad was killed in front of his friends was senseless and callous and they had been traumatised by his death.

"There was no reason to kill Salaad, who did not show any resistance and co-operated with the robbers," she said. "Statistics show that murder and robbery is on the increase in the country. People are tired of violence.

"Human life is a precious gift from God. Our Constitution teaches us to respect everyone. It makes no difference that these people were foreigners. They deserved to be treated like any other South African," she added.

Planned the robbery

Teffo said the three were motivated by greed and had planned the robbery. The murder was committed in the furtherance of a common goal.

They maintained their innocence throughout their trial and displayed a complete lack of remorse.

Although the three insisted that their youth and the fact that two of them were first offenders was mitigating, Teffo said they had not demonstrated any immaturity in their actions.

They were not influenced by peer pressure, and life imprisonment was prescribed for all offenders who committed such crimes.

They had persisted with their actions, despite the Somalis screaming for help, and clearly did not attach any value to other people's lives or their dignity, said Teffo.

What was their motive? If it were purely economically motivated, wouldn’t they have shown some remorse. Unless they’re hardened criminals...

It's not only here but on Twitter and other social media's as well. Yeah, FIY it does help. Send the message to the Somalis living in SA that they should all be heavily armed with guns and if those savage Zulus raid their businesses, body them all without any mercy.

I meant calling them apes, asking for the return of apartheid, etc. There are SA dudes on twitter trying to paint a picture of Somalis as foreigners on par with Pakis and Cadaans. All one has to do is show them Somalispot posts about them in order to rile them up. Somalis also need supporters and backing from South Africans with links to the gov.

Believe it or not, this website generates a lot of traffic and is often one of the first searches that comes up on google for English language news on Somalis.

Like it or not, Somalis helped SA under apartheid and those Somalis living in SA are enjoying the rights, however little they are, gained by black South Africans. Our approach has to to be measured even in emotive times.

I know Somalis supported against the apartheid but that was our biggest mistake because look how it turned out for our people living in South Africa.

You are missing the point. Getting rid of apartheid was not the problem, rather the problem is that the black leadership failed their people. Those poor in the townships would not be in this position if the black elites had secured true economic rights and freedom alongside poltical freedom.

Secondly, all Africans in SA are enjoying the rights which black people died for. Somalis would have been subject to the same racist laws as black SAs of apartheid continued.

''A WhatsApp message has been doing the rounds in South Africa warning anyone who has rented rooms to Somalis to evict them, our correspondent says.

According to the message if this does not happen by 8 September homes and shops will be burnt down.

A number of these shops are built in the backyards of residents, and are owned by immigrants, including Ethiopians, Zimbabweans, Pakistanis, our reporter says.

Many shop owners have now packed up their goods and are leaving the township, fearing further violence, she adds''.

Heres a Somali from South Africa explaining this

 

[Dalmoor]

Why you lying bruh? It was the shop owner(sOmALI) who shot the thief who wanted to loot his shop and later on ran for his life according to tweets and articles and I also heard that they were going to wipe out Somalis on September 8th. It'z a sad moment, but why are they acting like animals. They need to be recolonised again.Smh, Mandela didn't struggle for this. I saw some tweets saying that it's looting and not xenophobic.Smh, invading, looting shop owners with machetes is looting and not risky or xenophobic. Backward behaviour

 

[kickz]

Disgusting, these animals need emulate these Somali's business skills instead of killing them.

 

[onlyme]

Welp!

 

[Nin waalan]

Looting and burning immigrant owned businesses,killing and torturing white farmers etc how are this baboons planning to run the country if they force all the working people out.

I think townships are equivalent to favelas in Brazil. Somalis should get out of there quick.
