@Our_DA, this is not cool. I unsubscribed from your unsolicited emails on the 21st of May *and screenshotted the confirmation* because I thought I might need it again - and sure enough, there you are today again, in my inbox. @geordinhl, what do I have to do to get you to stop?!

‘uMhlangano is a queer-led gathering born from our shared longing for connection, belonging & meaning beyond commercialised, exclusionary spaces.

We’re co-creating space for reflection, music & conversation, honouring agnostic spiritual expression.

Hi @umrabulo. In February you said police were “hot on the heels” of Imam Muhsin Hendricks’ killers. To date there have been no arrests in the case - no justice for this extraordinary South African icon assassinated in broad daylight.

When can we expect an update on the case?

[Lesley @les_wright]

Hi @DMBoshielo. In February you told Deputy Minister Andries Nel that police were tracking the killers of Imam Muhsin Hendricks.
