The community is reeling in shock and anger following the brutal murder of Chilkana Baktawer, who was allegedly killed by her husband earlier this week.


As the accused is expected to appear at the Pretoria Regional Court this morning, residents are mobilising in large numbers to oppose any possibility of bail.


Calls for justice have echoed across the community, with many expressing deep sorrow and outrage over the circumstances of her death. The message is clear and united: “No bail – we want justice for Chilkana.”


Community members are urged to stand together in solidarity, sending a strong message that gender-based violence will not be tolerated and that justice must prevail.
