Willet Sibanda fought to prevent her little sister from being raped during xenophobic attacks on Monday night.
Willet Sibanda who also has an eight-year-old daughter received blankets and clothes at the Alexandra police station on Tuesday afternoon.
These possessions are all she has left after xenophobic violence broke out on Sunday and she became a victim of it on Monday night.
Sibanda told how men she described as ‘Zulus’ from a hostel in Alexandra kicked down her door around 22:00 and told her to leave everything behind and get out.
“They insulted us. They screamed, they shouted and said get out… they said leave everything. They demanded my cellphone and money… [they] touched me all over,” she said.
Sibanda described how the group of men told her to stand behind a curtain because they wanted to rape her little sister.
She refused and fought and pleaded with them not to do so.
“I said ‘rather shoot us’.”
After a while the men relented and allowed them to leave. They shouted at Sibanda and her sister to go back to Zimbabwe because they wanted her house and were tired of living in a hostel.
When the 28-year-old and her younger sister arrived at the police station they were told by officers that they would be taken to Doornfontein.
Sibanda, who is in South Africa illegally, said she did not want this but wanted to go home.
“I want to go back to my country, it’s not easy to stay in South Africa.
“Anywhere in South Africa, we are not safe… we came here for jobs and this is what we get,” she said.
Police reinforcements were sent to the South African township of Alexandra, in Johannesburg, after attacks on foreigners,mostly Zimbabweans.
Two Zimbabweans have been killed and about 40 injured during the attack on Sunday. A crowd of local people attacked migrants from Mozambique, Malawi and Zimbabwe, telling them to leave.
Police have arrested 15 people.

It has always been like this with South Africans.I also blame Mugabe for all this. Remember there was a time when only uneducated people came to SA but Mugabe ruined our country now this.South Africans are like Zanu PF.Hope the law will take its course. Its a matter of time before people go back home when MDC comes to power.
Get your reporting right. One of the people was a South African and noone knows why he was killed, probably mistaken for a foreigner. Mind you the attacks are targetted at foreigners and not just Zimbabweans. more Somalis have been killed than Zimbabweans. Just thought you should know.
i’m wondering how we guys in the diaspora can come together and help our people in trouble. imagine to take off to another country just to encounter another kind prejudice. i’m sure most of us are well off enough to afford us$10 to help out. what we will need is a plan to make sure all the money is used for the benefit of our people.lets give it a try.please.
Good idea but who is going to keep the money and ensure that it gets to the right people? Mugabe will hijack it.We really need to do something people are suffering and they need food as early as today.If there was a country willing to have concentration camps at learst.A country like Mozambique will do they seem to be generous.Not SA.MDC must come up with an idea we will support it all the way.
things are just so tough. We are victims of xenophobia all over the world. takadzidza and so we are a threat to job security wherever we go. WE CAN NEITHER BLAME SOUTH AFRICANS OR ANY OTHER COUNTRY THAT IS HOSTING US AS REFUGEES. HAISI MHOSVA YAVO… WE ALL KNOW THE ROOT OF THE PROBLEM AND WE ALL KNOW THE SOLUTION. ACTION MAZIMBO
MDC WILL NEVER SUPPORT ANY IDEA THAT WILL MAKE PEOPLE FEEL COMFORTABLE BECAUSE THEIR ELECTION STRATEGY IS BASED ON MAKING PEOPLE SUFFER SO THEY KNOW WHERE TO PUT THE X.X FOR FOOD.
YOU ARE IN A WAY BEING PRESSURED TO VOTE FOR THEM SINCE THEY PROMISE FOOD ETC.HUNGRY BELLIES NEED FOOD.SO IF YOU ARE FULL WHY BOTHER VOTING FOR CHANGE?
WHAT THEY HAVE MANAGED TO DO SUCCESSFULLY IS SEPARATE SANCTIONS AND MUGABE.ITS SANCTIONS CAUSING US ALL THIS MAYHEM AND YET WE ALL BLAME MUGABE..THAT HAS BEEN CLEVERLY DONE.PEOPLE ARE NOT PREPARED TO LOOK AT FACTS ANYMORE JUST BLAME MUGABE.THEY HAVE MANAGED TO CREATE A EVIL BRAND NAME CALLED MUGABE.HE IS ZIMBABWE-HE IS ZIMBABWE’S PROBLEM-HE IS A MONSTER-HE LOOTS THE COUNTRY-HE KILLS-HE RAPES-HE HATES-HE CHEATS ELECTIONS-HIS IMAGE HAS BEEN TARNISHED FOR GOOD AND THAT IS WHAT THEY HAVE ALWAYS WANTED TO ACHIEVE.
THE CAMPAIGN IS RELENTLESS-ON GOING.YOU WOULD EVEN THINK HE ALONE IS ZANU PF OR ZIMBABWE.THEY HAVE MANAGED TO MAKE PEOPLE SEE HIM AS EVIL..AS YOU KNOW THE MORE YOU HEAR SOMETHING THE MORE YOU START TO BELIEVE IT-JUST LIKE IN ADVERTISING.
WHEN YOU THINK OF MUGABE NOW-HE IS NO MORE A WAR HERO-THE GODFATHER OF ZIMBABWE-THE PATRIOT-THE HEADMASTER-THE EDUCATED PRESIDENT-THE HONOURABLE R.G.M.THE PRESIDENT WHO WANTS TO SEE BLACKS EMPOWERED NOT ONLY IN ZIMBABWE BUT ACROSS AFRICA…THE ONE WHO WANTS BLACK PEOPLE TO OWN THEIR RESOURCES.
LIKE I SAID THE OPPOSITION’S JOB HAS BEEN DONE BECAUSE ALL THESE THINGS DONT MATTER ANYMORE-PEOPLE JUST WANT FOOD..
EVERYTHING IS BLAMED ON MUGABE-IS THIS FAIR? PEOPLE TOOK UP ARMS WHEN FOOD WAS PLENTY.WHY NOW DO THEY DO THE OPPOSITE? WHAT HAS CHANGED?
IN POLITICS THERE IS ONLY LOSERS..NO ONE PARTY WILL END ZIMBABWE’S PROBLEMS NOW.THE FUTURE IS CALLING OUT FOR COMBINED EFFORTS..EVERY ZIMBABWEAN NEEDS TO PLAY A PART.
THE FARMERS-THE MINERS-THE TEACHERS-THE DOCTORS-THE NURSES-THE CRAFTSMAN-THE POLICE-THE ARMY-THE BUSINESS COMMUNITY-THE DODGY DEALERS-THE MARKET TRADERS-THE ENGINEERS-THE POSTAL SERVICES..AND MANY MORE -LETS RALLY TOGETHER AND WORK FOR A BETTER FUTURE.
DO NOT CONTRIBUTE TO THE DISTRACTION OF OUR ECONOMY..LETS REBUILD TOGETHER BACK TO THE FORCE WE WANTS WERE.
WE CAN BE A FORCE AGAIN…THE BALLOT BOX IS KING BUT BEFORE YOU COMMIT YOUR X ASK THE POLITICIANS DIFFICULT QUESTIONS -ASK THEM WHY AND HOW..WHEN AND WHERE? DONT JUST VOTE BLINDLY.
WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO OUR FARMS? HOW WILL YOU CREATE JOBS? WHAT ABOUT INDEGINISATION? WHAT ABOUT DEVELOPMENT IN RURAL AREAS? WHAT ABOUT THE HEALTH SERVICE?
IT SEEMS IN ZIMBABWE ALL WE NEED IS TO SEE FOOD DANGLED IN FRONT OF US AND THATS IT..WE ARE HAPPY .WHY DID SMITH NOT MANAGE TO DO THAT DURING THE WAR THEN? THERE WAS PLENTY OF FOOD THEN.
LETS SPEAK TO THESE POLITICIANS-LETS BOTHER THEM WITH DIFFICULT QUESTIONS-LETS NOT LET THEM GET AWAY WITH EASY CHEAP SHOT SLOGANS..IF WE DONT PRESSURE THEM THEN WE WILL GET WHAT WE DESERVE-
THE BLAME CULTURE MUST END-MBEKI THIS AND THAT….NO NO NO..THIS IS OUR PROBLEM.
THE FOREIGN AID CULTURE MUST END-LETS PRODUCE..YOU HAVE THE FARMS ETC SO MAKE THEM WORK FOR YOU.THE FOOD PRICES ARE SOARING AND WHAT A TIME TO SHOWCASE YOUR CAPABILITIES.
THE FUTURE IS IN OUR HANDS…
Zvakaoma. We should all kno kuti God is watching and he is for us all. He who lives by the sword will die by the sword. Hazvina basa kuti ndiyani.
Instead of blaming mugabe for everything -why does the mdc not campaign against this violence in south africa against our brothers and sisters.people were mobilised aginst the arms shipment and it worked-so why not do the same to protect our loved ones?
morgan himself has been robbed there-he should know better.he is still in south africa so what action is he taking to help these mdc supporters?
we are tired of discussing problems—lets find solutions.this kind of thing provides you with the opportunity to show the people that you care for their well being nd you are prepared to look out for them.They need help.
They will vote to make you president so what can you do for them?
