TikTok couple robbed while visiting Cape Town

Ageela Benjamin and her husband, Fariet Benjamin, both social media content creators, were travelling through Cape Town with family last Wednesday when their vehicle came under attack by a group of young assailants near the intersection of New Eisleben and Sheffield Roads.

The couple were on their way to Mitchell's Plain when traffic congestion diverted them through Nyanga and ultimately into Browns Farm, a known criminal hotspot.

“We were travelling with my mother-in-law and my 14-year-old niece. We got stuck in traffic. We saw people driving in through Nyanga, and we thought it would be a good idea to follow,” Aqeela said.
