> SABC though, 1st you interview her through her FRESH PAIN, next you ask her what kind of help she needs
> You don't even comfort her, for you it's a job, business as usual, for her it's her PAIN & SHOCK.
> You don't even tell us what you where the 4 children were at the time
Why is the SABC interviewing this mother SABC is heartless absolutely heartless
You guys are really insensitive for interviewing the mother directly sies
"How are you coping"what did this reporter expect?what a stupid question 🙄

Completely disgusted that they interviewed her so soon
It is absolutely disgusting that you interviewed her. She is in shock and you are taking advantage of a vulnerable woman. Shame on you.
This is sick… she's in trauma, clearly still in a state of shock and the SABC is like: "let's stick a mic in here face"
May Almighty Allah grant sabr to this mother aameen
