36 Yr old Set afire in Cape town for Being Gay
It’ s so sad to see a report coming in from anywhere, stating that a human being was set a fire because someone did not like the way he were, the way he was born. There out people out there that forgets in what year we live in. The answer to this is to make sure that the family and friends put enough pressure on the police to do their jobs. In all countries this is murder. So the perpetrators need to be caught and taken away so everyone knows that such act are not condone. For the report to come out of the country is a positive thing. In other times it would not happen. This time this is coming in the same day that it was reported there. Now we know what happen in Cape Town. (adamfoxie*)
Cape Town - The death of a Cape Town man, who was stabbed and set on fire in Milnerton, was a hate crime, says his father. File photo (Sapa)
Reverend Casper Daniels, 59, told the Daily Voice that he believed his son had been murdered because he was gay. His son’s injuries were concentrated around his private parts and legs.
The body of Neil Daniels, 36, was found in Milnerton on Monday night.
“I think it could have been a discrimination murder on gays because of the way it was carried out... The way they burnt his private parts - why do this to my child?” asked Reverend Daniels.
The reverend said his son had kept his sexual orientation secret and had only told him that he was gay.
He said his last words to him had been “be careful” and that he had become worried when his son didn’t attend Sunday morning church service as usual.
