It is alleged that the medical team was on duty on their way to different clinics as per their normal routine. During this operation, they were forced off the road by armed men who were in a Toyota Quantum.

According to the Department of Health, a nurse had to pay her last R300 to the men after they put a tire around a male colleague’s neck and threatened to douse him with petrol, and set him alight.

The suspects demanded to know why the medical team was working while they (suspects) are unemployed.
