Overwhelming reaction on social media after Klerksdorp murder | News Article

There was an overwhelming reaction on social media platforms, including Facebook, after the murder of Klerksdorp local businessman of the Speedy Car Sales dealership, Mohamed Dangor, by a gunman in North West on Monday 11 November.


The murder of Dangor, son of the owner Farouk, allegedly followed a heated argument with a 37-year-old gunman, who later handed himself over to the police. Facebook users have expressed their sadness after the killing of Dangor and injuries to others thought to be employees. Meanwhile, the Independent Dealer Association of South Africa NPC also took to Facebook to express their sincere condolences to the family of the deceased. The association says the news about the murder of Dangor is indeed sad news for the motor industry community.

Meanwhile, police spokesperson Aafje Botma could not confirm when the suspect will appear in the Local Magistrate’s Court. Botma says police are investigating a murder charge and two attempted murders. She further warned and cautioned the public to refrain from speculating or posting unconfirmed information. This comes after speculation that the suspect in question lost a court battle against the deceased over a business deal, fuelling speculation that the outcome of the case might have influenced his rage and led to the murder of Dangor. Police are, however, yet to confirm if this is true or not.
