“We would like to urge the public to refrain from sharing the graphic images of Nosicelo’s body in respect of the family who are still grieving.
“We will on Monday picket outside the court where the monster is expected to appear and will also visit the family to pay our respects.
“We want to call on the powers to treat this matter with speed and let it be done with venomous judgement upon this person.”
