AN argument over holy water has left a madala fighting for his life. The 67-year-old was allegedly stabbed by his 17-year-old grandson. The incident happened at KwaMashu South Africa, last weekend. Neighbours said tension had been building up since the grandson rejected the family’s church, the Apostolic Church, and joined the Faith Mission Church instead.
On Thursday, all hell broke loose when the madala brought back a 2 litre bottle of holy water.
“He was at the gate of his house when the grandson noticed the holy water. The young man demanded his grandfather throw it away before he’d open the gate,” said the neighbour.
The madala became furious and the two argued.
The neighbour said: “The madala said he wouldn’t be told what to do by a minor. The grandson then took a kitchen knife and stabbed his grandfather all over his body.”
KZN cop spokesman, Major Thulani Zwane said cops were investigating a case of assault with the intention to cause grievous bodily harm.
“No arrests have been made.”
