Argument between girl friends allegedly fuels deadly knife attack in South Africa

Duduza – A 19-year-old woman has been arrested for allegedly murdering her friend during an argument.

It is alleged that a group of friends were hanging out when the fight started.
Duduza police spokesperson Sgt Harry Manaka says the deceased had a fight with one of her friends, accusing her of telling her boyfriend that she had gone clubbing without informing him.
“Apparently the woman was in trouble with her boyfriend about this.
“Her friend, a 19-year-old, then allegedly stabbed the woman to death with a knife.
“According to one of the witnesses, the two were arguing just before the deceased was stabbed by the suspect.

“The victim was then rushed to Pholosong Hospital where she later died of her injuries,” he says.
Manaka says the suspect fled the scene after the incident but the police managed to trace her.
“It is unfortunate that we continue to lose the lives of young women to violence.
“We are urging the community to refrain from engaging in violent behaviour.
“Police are investigating a case of murder, and the suspect will appear in court soon,” he says.
