Shakierah Augustine
For many who work and spend their days at Mitchells Plain Town Centre, it still does not feel real that they will never again see Shakierah Augustine walking through the busy walkways with her smile, greeting people who had over the years become like family to her.
Known affectionately as “Kierah”, the 32-year-old’s lifeless half naked body was found behind Boxer supermarket on Saturday morning, wrapped in a brown blanket and dressed in a black dress. According to sources, electrical wires were also found around her body.
But for those who knew her, Kierah was far more than the tragic circumstances surrounding her death.
To the fish langanas, the foreign national shop owners, trolley pushers and customers at Town Centre, she was a loving soul whose kindness left a mark on almost everyone she met.
