Robert ‘Kicks’ Varrie – an alleged drug dealer who was interrogated on MojaLOVE show Sizokuthola has died.
According to City Press, the man accused of being a drug dealer was declared dead after being questioned during the filming of the anti-drug show.
The police and the spokesperson of the show have confirmed the death and the investigation is said to be ongoing.
Moja LOVE spokesperson Nonzwakazi Cekete reacts to reports implicating the host of the show, Xolani Khumalo.
“While Moja LOVE can confirm that the crew was in the vicinity of the premises while the deceased was being questioned, the channel is still investigating the circumstances that led to the deceased having to allegedly be rushed to hospital. We will wait for the official autopsy results for the cause of death,” she said.
However, Varrie’s partner claimed she witnessed him being suffocated and pepper-sprayed by some men believed to be Gauteng Patrollers, popularly known as amapanyaza.
