The 14 members of the Chicanos and Olifistas who is allegedly responsible for the murder of a teenager at his family home in the presence of his parents in Langa are due to appear in the Bishop Lavis Court on Monday.
“Eight of the suspects belong to the Olifistas gang and the remaining six to the Chicanos gang.
The incidents started when apparently on the 8th of September a member of the Olifistas was murdered and they believe that Chicanos was responsible for it hence the revenge attack,” says police spokesperson Elliot Siyangana.
On Monday a group of young men visited the home of the teenager and then brutally attacked him, he was left unconscious.
“Apparently the father took his son to the Day hospital for medical attention where he was declared dead on arrival,” says Siyangana.
The suspects ages range from 16 to 18 years and the investigation continues.
Anyone with information should contact Detective Thembisile Matinise on 021 695 8000 or Crime Stop on 08600 10111.
