A Limpopo family is seeking answers after the mysterious death of their 34-year-old son, Kabelo Molapo. On the evening of Friday, 24 January 2025, Kabelo visited a local tavern, just a short walk from his home, to socialise with friends over a few drinks. Tragically, that was the last time his family saw him alive.
The incident has sent shockwaves through the community of Praktiseer, with everyone from tavern patrons to concerned neighbours discussing the circumstances surrounding Kabelo’s death.
Kabelo’s mother, Refiloe Molapo, a self-employed entrepreneur, shared with us during a visit to their home that her son had received a phone call earlier that evening, inviting him to meet friends at the tavern. The next day, his lifeless body was discovered in his bed, with foam around his mouth.
Forensic experts were summoned to the scene to collect Kabelo’s body. The family suspects that his drink may have been poisoned, and they eagerly await the post-mortem results, which they hope will shed light on the circumstances surrounding his death.
