A woman believed to be a lawyer was fatally shot in broad daylight on Monday morning at the intersection of Fox and Joubert streets in the Johannesburg city centre, in what witnesses describe as a targeted attack.
According to eyewitness Pontsho Mahlangu, the woman had just got out her vehicle and was walking towards the offices of the Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration CCMA when a man approached her on foot.
She was coming out of her car, heading to CCMA, when the man came close. He shot her in the head three times, said Mahlangu, who spoke to Sowetans sister publication TimesLIVE at the scene.
