ROODEPOORT – The devastating scourge of Gender-Based Violence (GBV) has once again struck the West Rand of Johannesburg following the gruesome murder of a local woman, sparking community-wide outrage and calls for an immediate international manhunt.
Zilungile Qhinga, affectionately known to her loved ones as “Lush”, was tragically killed in Roodepoort, Gauteng. Her body was discovered with severe, fatal head injuries caused by a heavy, hard object. Indications suggest the heinous act occurred around the Father’s Day weekend before her remains were uncovered.

Grieving family members have pointed directly to Qhinga’s boyfriend, identified as **Hardlife Manziyo**, a Zimbabwean national, as the person responsible for the brutal assault. According to relatives, Manziyo allegedly told individuals close to him that he was leaving the area immediately following the incident before vanishing without a trace.
Law enforcement tracking units and local community safety structures have launched a massive search for the suspect, who remains completely at large and is believed to be attempting to evade border checkpoints to escape justice.
Candlelight Vigil Arranged to Demand Justice
To honor the memory of the young woman and stand firmly against the relentless tide of intimate partner violence, family, friends, and activists are mobilizing a formal candlelight vigil in Roodepoort. The gathering aims to celebrate her life while putting immense pressure on SAPS to expedite tracking efforts.
"We cannot keep burying our daughters, sisters, and mothers to senseless brutality. We demand that Hardlife Manziyo be tracked down and face the full, uncompromised might of the law."
