As the country was celebrating Human Rights Day on Saturday, 16-year-old Liyabona Mabishi’s right to life was taken away.
The Grade 11 learner from Nkanini in Khayelitsha [South Africa] was slaughtered by three men who left her fighting for her life.
The teen lesbian was walking with her 18-year-old friend when she accidentally bumped into one of the men.
She apologised for knocking him but her words fell on deaf ears and she was stabbed 13 times.
Her friend, who tried to intervene, was also attacked.
