😭 The fact that she had strong evidence such as underwear and still nothing happened? We are truly on our own!
Crime in SA is alarming 💔! Thank God they are alive.
When white people were saying this we thought they were racist, they were telling the truth
Yet there's no justice for such things
As South African man, we must really be ashamed for treating our woman and girls in this way. Really so sad and ashamed.
Sorry for the pain and what you went through. Life sentence for hijacking
What can shame do to help the current situation and as a South African man I believe we should stand up and be fearless to protect the community as I believe that these guys who are doing these things also need help in many different ways be it employment or anything but believe you me when I tell you that these are also human beings who also have things like anxiety and if we as a society become fearful of them it works in their favours
But even us men aren't safe it just goes back to the safety of the country . It's lacking there's no safety here
Don't include all men in that nonsense. Drop the "us", stop simping.
@@sbonzama7013 When women and children suffer in the hands of man, we are unfortunately accomplices. Our country is the way it is because of us man. We are failing our communities and we need to step up and be accountable.
Guys the peace in Thabile 🤯🙌🏻🙌🏻❤️❤️There’s something powerful about this Lady
The peace that surpasses all understanding, it is a cause and effect matter. ❤️
The real definition of “I’m not my circumstances”
@@lebomogoboya8689 is
Ms Thabile is a very strong and positive lady❤. Keep it up
And I would like to share my story maybe I will be able to heal completely 💔💔💔💔
I fully understand why people no longer have faith in SAPS🤮🤮🤮
SAPS. Reporting in South Africa is just a formality for records. We should ask for a detailed breakdown of statistics: per police station, how many reported cases per category, how many reached the courts etc. South Africans we are on our own.
You ARE THE USELESS ONE
My anxiety listening to this story 🥺😭
The survival is the silver lining for these two…but you can not ignore the damage. 💔
YHWH Help us all
Being hijacked, raped and shot is such a huge fear of mine and the fact that it can happen to me anytime as a woman in this country is so scary, worst part I have a daughter!
I was hijacked in 2011 or so, i do not wish it on my worst enemy.
Thabile seem like a great and caring teacher
Thabile is just a pure soul

Relebogile you're stunning Ma'am 😍 I love your fit
Thabile what a beautiful soul I love this girl she loves God
Omg Thabile thank God you are born again my sister you are so beautiful and so sorry this happened to you.This is infuriating but thankfully you are a strong woman
My heart goes out to both of you ladies.....Sis Thabi....i feel your faith from here...it gives peaces that passes understanding.May Yahweh forever cover you.
Oh my gosh, this brings back so many traumatic memories 😭 .
It was the 16th of June 2020, just around 7pm.
Outside our gate, we were held at gunpoint. They ddnt want the car but rather our belongings, My boyfriend said we should surrender. I was so confused why put a gun on our heads. The trauma. I am so scared to even be alone in the toilet. One of the other guys even put his hands in my underwears. Saying he is looking for something nice,
I even had to relocate from Thembisa to Nelspruit. I never felt safe at that place since the incident
I'm so sorry you experienced this babe. We are not safe at all🥺
Imagine my my incident happened in nelspruit 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Honestly the way hijacking happen so often in SA we turn to forget how deep the victims are affected, it has become an everyday crime and this is really sad. Our police are the most useless in all of this. I am really sorry for what happened to both of the guests, it is really sad
Yaz sis Thabile should be a counselor, she has positivity in her spirit and I can feel it.
So all the people who committed this offenses are Zulu😭
I've been to joburgh 3 times and non of those visits were settling.. I've never felt comfortable or safe in joburgh.. I'm from Swaziland and not in my wildest dreams do I wish to go back to that place.. I'm glad she's safe though 🙏😁
For a lousy R2500 she had to endure so much trauma, crime in SA is just too much and the problem this the criminal justice system we need a change. The law must protect not ignore the harmed.
It is such a shame when our own South African brothers do this to us
*I want to listen but don't want to be triggered😫!Thanks to the ladies for sharing their stories and hope will find courage to listen eendag!*
Likewise
That's why i always notify one of my siblings of my whereabouts, yuuuuuh so scary
One of my worst fears when driving back home
Two More Stories That Further Reinforces My Believe: Men Do Not Love Us, They Will Never Ever Love Us.
Most are damaged
But how could you say that when you hear that even the lady's boyfriend was also a victim to this?
You're the problem if you believe like that . Remember that it's because of a man that you're here . Part of GBV boils down to the safety and security in this country we're all not safe . Our government is failing us
@@mosalethoba5267 My Believe Has Kept Me Safe Till Thus Far, So It Is Working For Me. You Can Have Your Opinion, Just Do Not Project It On Others. Its Because Of Undeserving Men That Most Of Us Are Here Yes. But It Will Never Ever Change That I Believe That Men Do Not Love Us.
@@enduranceholdon4932 stereotyping is one of the most dangerous thing in society . Putting people of certain gender into one box amounts to stereotyping . Anyways keep on suffering it's your own baby to nurse if that's your world view .
To actually think and hear that this happened in Ladysmith my hometown and how I know these places she is mentioning and I drive there all the time when I am home visiting very frequently and how comfortable I am there with no worry of a possible hijack and always having my guard down considering how much alert I am when I am here in Joburg…. Sad
You’d never expect small towns like Ladysmith,Utrecht,Newcastle and Vryheid to have hijackings but unfortunately it happens bafo…the New South Africa is lawless.
Yho!Thabile is so chilled
Psychologists helped me a lot but it took time before i could be normal again
Courageous women for sure. Sis’Thabile you are our sister now, sisi wethu sonke. Because Wow, you have such a special spirit 🌸💓
Sis Thabi is so calm for someone who has been violated in such a way.
She is worrying me kakhulu.
Gino baby girl, I hope you find healing. Don't shut it out sisi. Deal with the ordeal. Get help my babe.
Ngaze nga thuka. 😞
I was not hijacked myself but I witnessed my friend being hijacked at gunpoint Infront of the house where I stayed. It was my first time seeing a gun I didn't know whether to scream or run, I just stood against the wall frozen. Fortunately he wasn't harmed they dumped him somewhere and they found the car in some dump in Soweto.
I don't know if these story bring me awareness or trauma. My family was hi jacked right inside of our family home at the time. They came inside the house and asked for a car back in 2013. I was not even at home when it happened but the trauma it brought. To this day I have never been the same. And this year in the beginning of the year I witnessed a hi jacking. They hi jacked a car that I was next to. It all happened so fast, i saw it a few seconds before it all started happening. I saw this car walk towards the driver and by the time he was a fee steps away, his hand was already in the gun in his pants. By the time gun shots were fired... i had already lost feeling of my legs and everything. Till this day the trauma I live with. I am always fearful to a point that this week I was thinking that I need to go for counselling or ask for prayer in church. I realised that this thing can happen to anyone at anytime, no one is safe. And I wish both ladies strength and healing.
You are both beautiful and strong Queens. The SAPS has been disappointing people for years and it continues to do it daily.
Funny how we are told to report rape but we hardly receive help.
What Thabile is saying is completely true, as a rape survivor and having kept it to myself for years, I have been angry at God for nor protecting me, angry at myself and wishing I could change a lot about that day. However, since I've opened about it am getting better each and everyday.
Modimo keo moholo😭🙌
This was one of my worst fears moving back to SA from overseas and big deciding factor in not settling in Joburg despite owning a property there. I hope to learn something from their ordeals.
This caused so much aniexty for me as I plan to relocate to S.A too...I don't want to live in fear at all and honestly I don't want my life to be determined by a crime
I was hijacked a month after moving back to SA.
@@lifhasiramulondi2194 I'm so sorry you went through that. It's so disappointing living in safe countries and coming home to such a mess.
Got mugged at gun point on my graduation day and even I woke up feeling extremely tired and off.I realised after that it was my spirit warning me of what would happen later
Thank you for sharing your stories ladies 💜
Mme Relebogile looking beautiful
Gino is my homegirl 🥺❤️
Such traumatising stories 💔😭
It brings back not so good memories but I am grateful that I am alive
I think that driving a vw tsi is a problem in SA, these are high risk cars.
Very traumatic. Also experienced being hijacked. All I prayed for was for God to save my soul if the worst happened to me. Luckily I am fine. I thank God for saving me.
yhuuu bethuna abantu esiphila nabo ngoo sathana kodwa
People are evil tjooo e bile ke a lwala
My family and I have witnessed a hijacking passing under a bridge on our way from home. It was past 12am and no cars in the road. There were about 3 guys hijacking a white Ford van. I dont know how many people were in there. They pointed their guns at us, I assume they didn't want us to help or try anything. I was just praying that they didn't shoot at us through the windows. I remember my dad accelerating, it felt like we were flying yoh.
I hope Gino's boyfriend rests in peace🙏 It is so sad when a life is lost especially at such a young age. Sending my condolences to Gino, I pray that she heals with time. Sending love and light to her.❤😭
People are psychopath out here.🤮🤢
The boyfriend of Gino Lekitlane passed on last week 😭 he was hoping to have watched this episode.
Gino has just been through a lot, this year 😭😭😭shame...
I am so saddened by this, i actually went to her IG page now oh noooooo 😭😭😭😭😭😭
@@Munei_Twin May God see this young lady in these difficult time. So young to experience such trauma. 🙈
@@sifisojele4000 Honestly 💔💔
Who's Gino?

God please grant me the strength to leave this country and open doors for us. The fear we have to live with is inhuman. This is not the way to live in such a beautiful country.
The fact that she saw police coming to the hijacker whilst she was in the trunk of the car...explains why her case isn't solved because its in the same jurisdiction that the case is reported/same police😢😮
My chest is actually burning from listening to these traumatic experiences 😭😭😭
Yoooh my worst fear 😰
I've always been asking myself how I would react witnessing an accident which I always pray I never get to witness.
This episode has taught me to pass whatever like it's a dream and am sorry to those I'll be passing but yoh.
I sometimes stop. But I don't think I will anymore. Yhio
i almost got hijacked at gun point on the 26th of September. the trauma i went thru, at some point i wanted sell my car. even now i'm scared to drive at night, when i see someone come running towards my car i still get panic attacks, its really bad i dont even know how i survived but i did
I’m so sorry that you had to go through that 😭😭😭any tips?
Thabile is a strong and fearless woman..
Great show. But can the guests please be allowed to speak their own language instead of English all the time
Things like this reminds me of 2 January 2020, I am still traumatized, me n my cousin got robbed inside where we were staying here in KZN and gunpoint and all they took all our belongings and money they were aslo looking for a gun which I don't know who told them we had gun, and also they were irritated that we not Zulus our language irritated them n also they told us that we should not be scared they won't hurt us it was nice working with us, we should forgive them it's just how they live, they work like that😭😭😭 I don't think I'll ever forget that.
Were they irritating because of your language Xhosa? I thought Xhosa was similar to Zulu?
Cant make your incident seem normal, Lord please protect us.
South African cops huh
They useless
They are really under resourced gents believe you me
@@tshepisomorobi659 Doesn't matter.They must quit
That lady is very strong to thd extend of praying w the hijaker..God has power.also the young lady thanks for praying
Such traumatic experiences, it's always strange how cases go unsolved in SA.
These stories😭💔
May God avail himself in your lives 😭
Men are making this world to be more horrible everyday 🙇♀️ its painful 💔
But how could you say that Rehab when you hear exactly that the man was also a victim to this?
This is taking me back to 2016 when I was hijacked and held hostage with my boyfriend 😭😭😭
My sympathy to the victims but I wish Relebogile could encourage the guests to speak in their home languages if English is not their mother tongue. It sometimes makes it so difficult to follow the story when the guests aren’t able to articulate themselves in English well.
Oooh God heal dis world 🙏😭😭
SA is a dangerous place....as for SAPS they are completely useless.
Thabile what a woman! She touched me.
I thank God I survived, still have severe anxiety and PTSD
I was also hijacked with my brother in Durban. Umbilo. They drove off with us in the backseat sandwiched between 2 of the guys. The 3rd one driving.
Yoh I have never been so scared in my life. I thought I was going to be raped and killed and there was nothing my brother could have done. They hit both of us. I only realised when we got help that my lip was split open.
They took everything from us and even asked my brother for his bank card pin codes.
Luckily for us they decided to dump us somewhere enroute to Emlazi and we had to walk to get help.
The car was found that same night in Umlazi with all doors open. They think they must have ran off on foot when they realized there was a helicopter now tracking the car.
I was so traumatized 😫. Attending therapy sessions at campus helped me a great deal.
I can relate sadly.
I’m sorry about your experience, hope you’re healing.
I also stay around the radius you were hijacked. Was it during the day or night when all this happened?
@@trevdoncabe9610 it was at night around 9pm. My brother was dropping me off at res.
The funny thing is I was nervous that whole afternoon for some reason and part of it was due to the fact that we had gone to DUT to drop off my sister before we headed my way.
I was more worried around her res as she had mentioned that a lot of hijackings happen around there.
What I didn't know was the vicinity of my res was no safer as well. That same night we were hijacked.
@@trevdoncabe9610 and thank you. It's been years since it happened. I'm not so triggered anymore when driving around at night.
It still there at the back of my mind but I can handle it. I'm so grateful to have survived that whole ordeal.
I still wonder if those guys are still alive with the kind of lifestyle they live.
@@kiri1517 I’m glad to hear you have found healing and you’re no longer easily triggered. I can imagine how the whole experience can be traumatic. Listening to the two guests, plus your experience cha South Africa is not safe and the sad part is that cops are involved. I’ll simply reduce driving at night ‘cause it seems like these monsters mostly go for the hunt when the sun goes down.
All the best and never stop being grateful to your God.
Sending love, light and healing to Gina 's partner❤

How does one come to unpack their story here?
This is very sad,this country is very dangerous for women
Why most of SA men mistreat women like this ?
Especially zulus
Where did she hide the underwear😅😅
Desmond Tutu advocated against the death penalty i think that's why they won't bring it back. After the old man dies it should be put in effect. A rapist doesn't need rehabilitation. They should perish.
Mma Thabile ❤️
Her energy ♻️
Wow. I had a similar incident. I will never forget. I was waiting for a friend outside her flat on the road, we going to dinner at Suncoast casino with friends. I was smoking, so my window was slightly open. Suddenly this guy puts a gun thru the window and asked me to open the door. I did that immediately, rather calm. Oprah's voice came into my head, an episode about hijacking I had seen. She never never let them take you to point B. But with a gun pointed at me I had no choice. I get out n go to passenger side, second guy gets in with me. Main guy drives. I am a hip hop fan, so CD carries on playing. They keep asking me questions, where u from, do u work etc. I answer all these questions calmly for some reason. Praying in my head, I am from a very religious background. Their first words were, as I had immediately reached for the ignition, don't "uzolimala". I then opened and was told to move to back seat with one guy, the other then drove my car to some town ship, from town. All that way I am praying I my head. They stopped at ATM and told me to get money. One guy comes with me. With the gun. Luckily all I had was 150 bucks. Month end. I took it out and gave it to them. Thought they would let me go, they kept driving. Out of town, now we on highway towards airport. Now I am worried and I start crying. Asking them to drop me off on the side. Eventually we reach a township, they tell me to get off, they drive away. They took my money, but gave me 10 bucks after I cried n said I must call my mom to fetch me. I then called tracker n then my friends, who came to fetch me in an hour. When they came, only then I started crying. Iyo I will never forget. Car was found next day by tracker. With scratches etc. But it was fine, I drove it for another 6 months n then sold it. I will never forget. Main thing that made me calm is the fact that they said relax sis we won't rape you cos we have girlfriends. I relaxed from there shem. Cos that was my fear. We get to umlazi, I get off, luckily by a place where I can call. Called tracker first, then my mom n then my friend whom I was with for dinner. Only then did I start crying shem. I could have died or been raped or disappeared. God had a diff plan. They dropped me off middle of no where. I found a phone, called my friends n then mom. Friends came to get me. We went straight back to casino cos I Def needed a serious drink lol. My mom came to get me, they found my car same night, tracker. But I sold it after a month. I was done. Ya neh, I always say that if I survived that? I can survive anything.
Very courageous women
Mhh our zulu brothers jesu wami😢😢nxa who can we trust now
Uuuuuuh south African men please
Please please get help. Trauma can literally make you sick. Anxiety, depression or other mental illness, chronic illnesses, autoimmune disease.. Find a therapist that you like, that is professional and you feel safe with. Now a days, if you're scared to leave your house, you can have sessions via zoom (internet).
Running away from the triggers, pain or memories is something you can't do. It won't go anywhere, I'm sorry, but that's how it is. Slowly going through it, talking to a therapist who lovingly guides you through it, research online, join a group of people who underwent similar experience, healing yourself, with love and understanding, is something you can do. I'm so sorry this happened to the both of you. All the best xx
Oh Lord! 🤦🏾♀️
Why didn't the husband call the tracking company after the 1st call because clearly there was something fishy. Also surely there was a tracking app he could have seen that strange route the car was driving, to confirm that there was something fishy.
Reasons i have always been scared of Jozi.
I'm shook to the core😫😫😫
Thank you for sharing your powerful strength with us. 💗💗💗💐
Gino, even if you have to see 10 therapists before you find the one to work with you, do it, love. I know that in our culture we don't hold therapy in high regard. I understand you wanting to laugh it off. But sweetheart, it was a trauma which at some point in your life could force you to your knees.
I pray for all us women, the world over. Xxx
💔
Yoh
Wow strong women, terrible ordeal
Wish American forensics can come help us they do it smoothly
We live in a world fraught with evil. These ladies went through hell and it's so sad.
How did she send the money?
Such heart wrenching stories 😭😭😭💔
Ah guys the story telling 😩
Calmness in thabile ❤
Thabile is amazing 😭
