Diepsloot is a poor area housing disadvantaged people in a shack environment. The location of Diepsloot is next to luxury areas Deinfern and Steyn City.

These are poor people who were all forced into a certain area and even after apartheid were unable to get out. So thus have lived hard lives and some fight for survival. Yes some crimes are hideous and out of this world, but i dont think we can judge these people. None of us have been in their shoes. The human mind is a very very funny thing and certain variables like poverty, the need to provide, feeling of power, worthiness, etc cam drive a man to do some mental things.

In the uk people have been killed over football matches havent they? I mean look at that thats even more crazy than people fighting over money or whatever else?!
