SA judo champion and would-be Olympian Preston Davids was killed in the troubled Cape Town neighbourhood on Monday, in an incident allegedly motivated by “jealousy”.

Davids’ younger brother Grant Quanteney, 27, was with Kleinsmith at the police’s forensic laboratory on Tuesday to view the body.

“It’s just the three of us. My mom died four years ago. My father died 26 years ago. My younger brother is 17. It’s a little heavy for him. He loved my older brother more than he loved me. My older brother was always much kinder to him, whereas I was much stricter,” he said. “I’m still trying to be strong for my younger brother. My mom used to take care of my younger brother, but over the past four years my brother and I stood in for her.”
