The Varrie family told Eyewitness News that though Robert was a drug dealer, Khumalo and his crew did not have the right to kill him.

Robert's sister, Delia Varrie, said there needed to be justice for her brother's murder.

"They beat him to death and what we want to ask is where is the video because there were two camera guys at the scene, there were two of them at the scene.

“We want to know where the video is that they took that day, and we want to know where the footage is at the hospital when they dumped him there."
