In an emotional video, controversial socialite and DJ Cyan Boujee has weighed in on the brutal killing of two cousins from her hometown of Mamelodi in Tshwane, defending their honour from hurtful online comments.
The two women were allegedly gunned down after one of them got into an argument with a man believed to be the boyfriend of one of them. As South Africans weighed in on the brutal killing of the two young women, Cyan Boujee took exception to some of the comments about the victims.
Some of the negative comments, particularly those regarding their dating life, have since been dismissed by their aunt.

“Absolutely sad and concerning. 💔 Stop with the comments! This can happen to any woman close to your heart. #justicefortshiamoandbaleseng”
In the video, Cyan Boujee condemned social media users for criticising the late cousins for the alleged party lifestyle they led. She declared that South Africa is no longer a safe country for women and pointed out that what happened to the cousins can happen to anyone.
“Regardless of everything. The time, what they were wearing, what they were drinking, the age, it doesn't matter, for the fact that they didn't come home, what are we doing about that? South Africa is not safe for women anymore. It can happen to your cousin, your friend, your girlfriend, your best friend, whoever it is, it can happen to any of us,” Cyan Boujee said.
She urged South Africans to stop victim-blaming.
“Why are we justifying the situation? We cannot keep asking ourselves why the killer actually allowed it. It's embarrassing to see the comments. This is a sensitive topic. I feel so sad. Stop blaming women for their deaths. Stop normalising deaths,” Cyan Boujee added.
