What began as a routine holiday trip for a Cape Town mother and her 11-year-old son ended in a robbery on the N2, an incident that has sharpened attention on long-standing safety concerns along the airport route.
According to the Daily Voice , Masroefa Kassen was travelling with her son on 13 December, heading to drop him off with his father for the school holidays.
Using the Airport Approach Road, the pair were diverted onto Borcherds Quarry Road after their vehicle suffered a flat tyre around 1pm.
