JUSTICE: ACID ATTACK VICTIM SEEKS ANSWERS, WANTS WITHDRAWN CASE TO BE REVIEWED >>> Suspects let off hook due to apparent lack of evidence.

- Masoka Dube

A Limpopo woman, who was burnt with acid, is furious and wants the authorities to review the reasons that led to the withdrawal of the charges against her alleged assailants.

Gavaza Mukansi, from Dan village in Tzaneen, who was burnt with acid on the face and her body in 2022, told The Citizen that since 2023, she has been trying to convince the authorities to review the case, but they have not given her a straight answer.

Mukansi was attacked outside her home, allegedly by a couple who were her neighbours at the time.

While she was in hospital, the two were arrested and released on bail. Later, the case was withdrawn due to a lack of evidence.
