After releasing this statement, the police did however issue a correction, saying that both of the people involved were men.

Mzansi seems to have become numb to the scourge of domestic violence as most of the outrage directed at police was due to the lack of details about who the suspect was.

@krugersville: “Hey we want names man what the hell”

@Confipetite: “Yhoo, just spill the name. Oksalayo, we will eventually know.”

Hopefully, everyone will take a moment to consider that someone died as well.
