In the space of eight months, Mondli Ngcobo stood before two open graves.

Still recovering emotionally from burying his wife, Nosipho, whom he had been married to for 18 years, Ngcobo had to bury his 17-year-old daughter, Aphiwe, after she was brutally murdered and raped.

In an interview with News24 on Sunday night, Ngcobo recounted the devastating journey and immense sorrow of losing two loved ones in such a short space.
