Trade union, National Union for Metal Workers South Africa (NUMSA) has expressed its outrage at the brutal manner in which liquidator Cloete Murray was murdered.
The union sent its condolences for the deaths of Cloete Murray and his 28-year-old son, Tom, who were gunned down in their car on the N1 highway in a suspected hit-and-run.
