A 36-year-old man from Bharuch’s Walia taluka was killed in Beira city in Mozambique on Tuesday by the thieves who struck at his house. The thieves tried to char the body of the deceased but escaped fearing their arrest.
Saukat Aadam Mammuji, 36, a resident of Siludi village in Bharuch’s Walia taluka had gone to Mozambique to work in a provision store. He left behind his three young children, wife and his family members to earn a living for them back home.
According to reports, Saukat was sleeping in his house in Beira city in Mozambique when the gang members struck with the plan to carry out robbery. Saukat could not retaliate as there were four to five thieves. Saukat was first stabbed to death and then the thieves tried to char his body but left the house fearing their arrest.
Saukat had left his native village to settle in Mozambique about one-and-a-half-year ago.
“We received a call from the relatives in Mozambique and his friend about Saukat’s murder. His body was not in good condition as the thieves had tried to char the body. However, the last rites were performed in Beira and that his body was buried there itself” said Saukat’s father, Aadam Mammuji.
Earlier, many youngsters from Bharuch and nearby villages who have gone to South Africa and other African countries in search of employment have been killed for one or the other reason.
Aadam Mammuji said, “We have lost our breadwinner, but want the district administration and the Government of India to ensure that no other Saukat is killed in South Africa”
