iavanpijoos It's OK they will get bail, disappear and repeat the crimes. That is how justice works in south africa.

iavanpijoos THEY ARE SOUTH AFRICANS AND THEY SHOULD BE HANGED… YOU PEOPLE NEED TO START TAKING RESPONSIBILITY OR ELSE WHILE YOU ARE BUSY WITH BLAME GAME THE COUNTRY WILL BE GONE 1 DAY

iavanpijoos Throw away the keys!

iavanpijoos Is the Justice system capable of being harsh because here we need harsh punishment.

SaaymanBarry iavanpijoos Death penalty material.They have confessed.

iavanpijoos All the suspects arrested in all the mass killings so far in Alexanda, Katlehong, Kestell in Free State are all South Africans, this clearly shows that we cant blame foreigners for all the crime that is happening in RSA. Its time we take responsibility&unite to fight crime

iavanpijoos Where's the outcry form black twitter? I heard more of an outcry when the white guy urinated on the black guys laptop. When is black twitter going to march and shut down the town for this... Or doesn't it matter cos its black guys doing the killing?

iavanpijoos So does EFF believe death penalty is wrong !!!!?

iavanpijoos Feed these animals to pigs.

iavanpijoos Cry me river, hang them up

iavanpijoos This is what we need....say no more!

iavanpijoos I guess they are not Zimbabwean or foreignes otherwise their nationality would've been the main headline

iavanpijoos Wonder where those ignoramuses r now who tweeted & indicated that the farmer was responsible 4 these killings. 4 some ppl it's just 2 easy 2 race bait & play the race card. They should just as these killes b held responsible 4 their diverseve actions on social media.

iavanpijoos The faces of killers, what goes through their minds to be so brutal.

iavanpijoos Hope the community pay their families a visit! I’m sure this is not the first time they commit a crime and their families never handed them to police

iavanpijoos Police will still fcuk up the investigation

iavanpijoos Some cases need community to solve them since our law is too soft when dealing with creatures like these

iavanpijoos Condolences to the family. Do you think the tears mentioned in the article is because they are caught or remorse? Why would you be remorseful so after the fact. Also 22. Still a child.
