These are just some of the reactions from South Africans as we continue the fight against Gender Based Violence in South Africa.
The death of #Tshegofatsopule is one the most brutal ways a woman has ever been killed. I can't imagine her unborn child bearing stab wounds from a crime neither the baby nor the mother committed Whilst we welcome the life sentence handed down to #NtuthukoShoba we remain gutted pic.twitter.com/yGntB050mT
