"A similar case was happening at our flat and these guys said not on our watch we waited there reprimanding the guy till police came to break down the door. Stop saying it's between two people if you can't intervene call the cops u can do so anonymously!!! #JusticeForNosicelo"
Phumlani_PrEP:
"I am really bothered to learn that the suspect's housemates could hear her asking for help and the noises from her beating up and thought it was their "usual fights."
The fact that no one intervened, even a knock on the door would've made a difference."
