A suspect was arrested on February 18, a week after the incident, and faces charges including murder, attempted murder, and arson. Last week, he appeared in court in absentia due to his injuries but is scheduled to appear in the Roodepoort magistrate’s court on Wednesday.

Marishka’s mother spoke about the devastating impact the attack has had on their family, especially on Marishka’s nine-year-old daughter and her brother Diego. She mentioned that the incident brought back painful memories of a previous tragedy in their family, further compounding their grief.

The community and authorities have been deeply shocked and saddened by this brutal attack, and efforts to support the family and seek justice for the victims are ongoing.
