Assaulted Moses Mabhida security guard still too shaken to work big stadium events DailyNewsSA
Durban - Flashbacks of a near-death experience when security guard Sabelo Maziba was attacked by a mob at Moses Mabhida Stadium during the semi- final match of the Nedbank Cup last April forced him to turn down a job at the Gcwalisa iMabhida Maskandi concert on Saturday. Maziba, 32, was captured on video being assaulted by a mob when hundreds of fans stormed the pitch, destroying infrastructure, after Kaizer Chiefs lost to Free State Stars.
Eight others were handed three-year terms, wholly suspended for five years on condition that they were not convicted of the same offence in that time. He said events that attracted a large number of spectators, especially soccer matches that involved big teams, were a risk that he was not yet prepared to take.
He said that since the attack he had only worked at four events at Moses Mabhida. Maziba hoped that his ordeal would change the working conditions of security guards by ensuring that there were safety measures in place for them.
