Durban – The family of the murdered Miguel Louw described their murderer’s conviction as bittersweet.
Mohammed Vahed Ebrahim was found guilty of the premeditated murder in July 2018.
Following the speedy sentencing in Durban High Court on Monday, Miguel’s aunt, Tasneem dos Santos, said the family was happy that “justice was finally served.”
“This is bittersweet as we will never see our baby again or know what he went through… his last words. But we are grateful that he (Ebrahim) will never again walk the streets or hurt another innocent child. “
Dos Santos said they were praying for a harsh sentence Wednesday.
“It should be a good example for anyone who thinks it is okay to take the life of an innocent child again.”
She described the past two years as long and emotional.
“Running from one side of the court to the other, reliving the moment when our baby’s life had been stolen by a monster … looking at his evil face without any remorse.”
In convicting Ebrahim, Durban Judge Jacqueline Henriques said there was a “plethora of evidence” against the defendant and, seen in its entirety, the case against him was overwhelming.
