Dad hunts down daughter's killers

I take my hat off to him, he did the right thing and I don't think I would have as they wouldn't the the chance of seeing the inside of a cell for this crime.

I hope the law works properly on this one.
 
As a father I would say he should have killed them , then I take a min , pause and think rationally. What kind of a society would we be in if we think revenge is the correct way to go about things ? Crime is winning on all levels the day we decide to take another life in revenge.

Tough thing to ask a parent but I admire the man very much for doing the right thing.
 
Sadly he just let the killers off by turning them in. There is no justice left in this country, the correct approach would have been to interrogate and dispose of the guy.


Thats exactly what he should not be doing. No man has the right to take another life. I don't oppose the death penalty , in fact I champion the punishment very much , I just don't think one person has the right to decide that. The law is there to punish these thugs , whether we agree or not with the punishment does not mean we should take it into our own hands. It will put us in the same league as these murderers and rapist out there.
 
If there is adequate evidence it is quite likely they'll go to jail. If he had killed them he would have to worry about murder charges.

What's really sad is there was no mention of Pretty in any of the news sites before this story about her dad. Imagine if she was from a white suburb, News24/IOL would be doing backflips over each other.
Not only that but the genocide nutters would be out in force.

Better yet, Denzil Washington.
A few minutes of his self-righteous ranting and the guy would have killed himself.
 
Need a few more men like this in South Africa.

No, we need more police like this man in South Africa so that citizens don't have to do their work for them.

All the same, well done and hats off to Mr Silwanyana. You are a beacon of light in this cantankerous society we live in.
 
Got to ask why SAPS could not do this themselves. Kudos to the father.
 
When I read the topic title I was rolling my eyes, thinking that the father went Rambo on them. In return, I was more than happily surprised to see the ultimate outcome. Good on you sir.
 
It's so sad that our people have to go to these lengths due to the incompetence of everything related to government. Our government is pathetic. Our leaders are a joke. Our president is a loser. ANC voters; hang your heads in shame.

.....and there's more to come. Watch this space!
 
They could've made a movie out of this if he just killed the bastids. Just like the movie "Taken".
 
Robbery gone wrong? So these ppl killed to protect a robbery gone wrong! All the more reason for instant justice. Dad, that was cool to nab the guy, but to leave the robber not cool
