She was gunned down in the driveway of her home, south of Johannesburg. Yesterday, all six men accused of her killing have been sentenced to lengthy prison terms of between six and 22 years in the high court in Johannesburg. They pleaded guilty to the charges of murder and attempted murder. This after the accused entered into a plea agreement with the state. For more on this, Babita Deokaran's brother-in-law Pastor Tony Haripersadh, spoke to Elvis Presslin
