Family of slain Kgomokasitwa trio demands answers

On February 25, 2025, Mokomeng, a Lance Corporal soldier based at Glen Valley camp, allegedly shot Elizabeth Ramolala and two of her grandchildren, Katlego Ramolala and Alefha Ramolala, and torched the house with their bodies inside. Only one grandchild of the elderly woman survived the soldier's attack, as well as the neighbour who happens to be a police officer, Thabo Dibotelo. He survived a gunshot wound to his right shin.

The incident has since left the quiet village of Kgmokasitwa in disbelief and has sparked a lot of theories on social media, with people wondering what could have led to Mokomeng's killing spree. Some people speculate that Mokomeng killed the Ramolala family over a defilement case stemming from 2022. It is alleged that before the incident, Mokomeng was served with court papers which may have set him on the rampage.
