The family of Amena Yanuyanutawa are still in shock after the tragic incident that happened to their son yesterday morning, and they are concerned that one day the same group can kill someone.

Losalini Waqaduadua, mother of the 20-year-old says seeing her son after escaping from being killed by five men was terrifying.

Waqaduadua says her son recalled that they were punched and dragged into a vehicle from a shop at Milverton Road.

They were having a few bottles of beer outside the shop.

He told his mum that they were kicked and punched in that vehicle until they reached a shop at Rewa Street where they were told that it will be the last day of their lives.

She adds her son and his friend were beaten inside that house until his friend found a way out and ran for his life.

Waqaduadua says after the man stabbed her son, he managed to fight his way out after hearing their plans that it will be his last day.
