Thapelo Maropefela’s Sister Demands Justice After the Actor Allegedly Died from Assault Injuries. Losing a sibling is one of the most painful things that a person can go through, more so when it was just the two of you. Sadly every single day, life throws us curve balls and we have no choice but to deal.

This is sadly a reality for Kamo Maropefela, who lost her brother Thapelo Maropefela a few weeks ago. The 25-year-old died on Sunday, 24 October, according to his sister Kamo, who shared the news on social media. Thapelo died on the eve of his 25th birthday, which makes the whole thing more tragic. Kamo did not share the cause of his brother’s untimely passing then, but now the family is openly talking about it.

According to statements from the family, Thapelo was allegedly killed by a group of eight Zimbabwean men. The Kingdom actor and model reportedly died in his sleep after he was allegedly beaten by a group of security guards in Maboneng. He was then found unresponsive on Sunday 25 October in his Airbnb apartment in Fairland, Johannesburg.

Thapelo, who lived in Cape Town had traveled to Johannesburg for a pre-birthday celebration with his friends on Saturday evening 24 October. Trouble ensued when one of the actor’s friends reportedly angered security guards outside a pub. According to reports, the friend started urinating against the wall of one of the buildings and security personnel roughened him up. When Thapelo tried to help his friend, the guards allegedly assaulted him too.

Although they will never see him again, Thapelo’s family demands justice for him. Kamo took to Twitter to get people to support them as they seek justice.

Hi guys, Please help me spread this as far as possible. Ill never see my brother again, but we need to get #JusticeForThapeloMaropefela,” Kamo said.
