South African police probe murder of anti-immigrant provincial leader

Friday, 17 July 2026, 06:34 · 1 min read

South African authorities have assembled a multidisciplinary team of detectives and crime intelligence officers to investigate the killing of Andile Mvuyiselwa Somgaxa, the Gauteng provincial leader of anti-immigration group March and March. Somgaxa was shot in the driveway of his Johannesburg home on 3 July and died in hospital ten days later; his organisation believes the killing was in retaliation for its campaign to expel undocumented migrants. Acting police chief Lieutenant General Puleng Dimpane confirmed the seriousness of the investigation but also warned that harassment and violence against foreign nationals remain unlawful and will not be tolerated.
