The Pinetown Regional Court sentenced a Durban schoolboy to five years' imprisonment for the 2022 murder of his 15-year-old schoolmate, Jayden Glazer, over a girlfriend.

News24 previously reported that the boys had organised a weapons-free fistfight on a WhatsApp group, which had other pupils as members, but Ryleigh Naidoo, then 16, brought a steak knife to the scene.

At the time of the deadly fight, the boys were pupils at a school in Ashley, Pinetown.
