“She Once Told Us This Man Will Kill Her…” — Zenande’s Heartbreaking Warning Comes True

The tragic death of 25-year-old Zenande Tshazibane has sparked a nationwide outcry and renewed calls for justice in South Africa’s fight against gender-based violence. Her lifeless body was discovered under a pile of blankets in her bedroom, with foam in her mouth and strangulation marks from a shoelace — allegedly at the hands of the man she feared the most.

Zenande’s friends say the warning signs were there.

“She told us this man will kill her,” one friend said tearfully. “We thought she was joking. We never imagined it would happen like this…”

The suspect — her boyfriend — was reportedly the last person seen with her, but as of now, he is still on the run and has not been arrested.

💔 A Growing Movement: #JusticeForZenande

Outraged by the lack of immediate police action, the community has launched the Justice for Zenande movement. Supporters gathered outside Nyanga Police Station demanding accountability and faster response from law enforcement.

“Zenande told them. She told us. And now, she’s gone,” said one activist at the protest. “How many more women must die before someone listens?”

South Africa has one of the highest rates of femicide in the world. Zenande’s death is a painful reminder that warnings from abuse survivors are too often ignored, with deadly consequences.
