Seimela, who is the regional chairperson of the South African National Civic
Organisation (Sanco) in Damonsville, was said to have been shot by police while
trying to help injured Osia Rahube during protest marches against water
shortages in Mothotlung, near Brits.
Rahube was the first of four people killed in the
Mothotlung protest.
Seimela was not part of the protest, according to
his friends Pasture Maremo and Paul Hendriks.
Hendriks states that Seimela was on his way to town
when the shooting began and stopped to help Rahube.
"Enock was shot with his hands up,
trying to stop the protesters ... My question is: who gave the police the
instruction to shoot? It was a peaceful protest," asks Maremo.
