    • She also ordered both sentences to run concurrently with another five-year jail sentence Qwabe is already serving for a different murder he committed in 2012.
    • She also took into account that courts have repeatedly said that murder and robberies have become a scourge in our society. Farm murders are particularly endemic and often involve attacks on elderly and vulnerable victims.
