2007-09-20
A MAN died this weekend when he was informed of his son’s death. Franklin Liebenberg (20) was stabbed to death outside a shebeen in OR, Mbekweni, on Sunday evening, after he allegedly stabbed another man in the hand.
A friend of Liebenberg who was on the scene, apparently took a photograph of his lifeless body on his cellphone and presented it to Kiepie Hendricks (64), Liebenberg’s father.
The man clutched his chest and died shortly after this, apparently from a heart attack.
The suspect in Liebenberg’s murder is currently being treated at Paarl Hospital after an operation to his hand.
