Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 66467, member: 636"] Thousands marched through Durban's central business district on Monday after seven-year-old twins fell down an open elevator shaft at their apartment complex, killing one child and leaving the other in critical condition. Protesters delivered demands to HOMii Lifestyle property managers and police officials before dispersing in heavy rainfall. The twins plunged from the fourth floor to the basement at the Pixley ka Seme Street building on October 18. Police opened an inquest and rejected accusations about a missing witness statement from their case file. Father Khaya Dlamini accused investigators of arriving late to the scene and mishandling evidence. The family buried Aphelele on October 25, while his sister Aphile remains hospitalized in a coma. Demonstrators called for the release of closed-circuit television footage and for stricter enforcement of residential safety regulations across the city. [/QUOTE]
