This is not the first tragedy to struck the family recently. In 2019 Papa Penny lost his stepson Nicholas who apparently committed suicide. Speaking to Sowetan Papa Penny said he disappeared for a couple of days and they found a letter that he was going to kill himself at Soshanguve train station.
“He woke up in the morning and he was very good. So around 3pm after taking a bath he just told the grandfather that he’s coming back [after going out],” Penny said.
“I don’t know what his problem was. He used to tell his mother sometimes that ‘I’m going to kill myself’. During the day on Thursday, he sent his mother a picture with the peace sign. The mother didn’t think much of it.”
May her soul continue to rest in peace.
