Police spokesperson Captain Mavela Masondo confirmed that Phiri was shot and taken to the hospital.
“We can confirm that Maimane Phiri and another person were shot at. The other person died on the scene while Phiri was taken to the hospital. He is seriously injured but stable. We can also confirm that the shooter also turned the hun on himself and got injured. The shooter is also in hospital. We are still investigating the cause of the shooting,” said Masondo.
Another source says: “This was not a robbery but a quarrel ensued between the gunman and Maimane. Maimane is extending his business and wanted to make it bigger but the gunman had issues with Maimane’s plans to extend the business. He had an altercation with Maimane and the other person, that is when he withdrew a gun and shot Maimane and the deceased. He later turned the gun on himself trying to take his own life."
