Overview
- Gauteng police say two suspects followed and shot 35-year-old Sibanye-Stillwater labour lawyer Chinette Gallichan outside the CCMA in Johannesburg on Monday morning.
- Investigators report no arrests and no confirmed motive, and they have asked the public to share tips via Crime Stop at 08600 10111.
- Early accounts point to a targeted attack because nothing was stolen, though police say the motive remains part of the inquiry.
- Justice Minister Mmamoloko Kubayi condemned the killing as a threat to the rule of law and urged swift action from law enforcement.
- Security responses include a Sibanye-Stillwater internal probe and calls to review nearby CCTV and increase policing around court precincts, a push sharpened by recent attacks on lawyers.
