What senseless deaths – four young men killed due to mindless, selfish behaviour. What a f@#$$%^ stupid thing to do – race cars in public in the middle of the afternoon, drunk.
The drivers of the cars Molemo “Jub Jub” Maarohanye, who was due to come to our offices today for an interview, and his unnamed friend are in jail. Hopefully they spend the rest of their lives there.
The sooner we are all driving slow electric cars the better. For everyone. (Please don’t let these cars be over designed to go at high speed!)
Update: One of the injured children has died – that’s five dead. Further update: The fifth victim is in a coma and thankfully not dead as I said earlier.

He who sin not shall throw the 1st stone……….U carry on like ur saints, mistake happen and who said anything about cocain being used cause that has not bn proven in court yet… Bless those that lost their lives and their families.. For the rest ur no better than the next person
@ Mr say it like it is….. If you were the one that lost a loved one I bet you would sing a diffirent tune all together. No one is perfect but we were given a “little voice” that tells us what is right and what is wrong. Clearly the DRUGS and ALCOHOL took over this voice of reason and it was a huge mistake!!???!!?? I think not. We all have brains. Some just dont use it the way they should.
jub- jub and his killer friend shud rot in jail, for killing those poor kids, it wud’ve been nice if 1 of them had also died in that accident.
To all those who wish jub jub will go down for murder,here is how its gonna go down,this is the law in RSA as we speak,ur emotions o personal views dont count for chicken **** in court,here goes the trial……
Stage 1…. There has to be an ACT – this part jubjub played a role,he drove the car/drag raced in ekasi….
Stage 2…..was the ACT the CAUCE of death of the deceased????? Yes it was…..so far so good for he state
Stage 3….. Was the ACT UNLAWFULL????yes drag racing is unlawfull and yes he unlawfully caused the death of the decesead
Stage 4….was jubjub capacitated during commission of the crime in other words was he aware of wat he was doin and is there anything that might have have taken away his ability to act responsibly??????alcohol comes in play @ this point, now the state needs to prove beyond reasonanble doubt that jub jub knew wat he was doin,and jubjub will say he was so intoxicated he did not know what he was doin o if he knew he could not reconcile with the consequence of such an act….
Lastly stage 5…. The state has to prove jubjubs fault either as intention or negligence….this is the tricky part if the state wants to hang mjubana on murder they need to prove intention,that is he intentionally cozed the death of thoz 4 victims,this is no easy task ladies and gentleman coz best beliv wen i tell u the state will fail ryt here,but no need to dispair f the state lawyer is worth his salt he will take another avenue dolus eventualis,that is he will say that jubjub knew that drag racing in that street o road whatever it was- was dangerous and that if he drag raced he would end up killing someone but jubjub ignored his conscience and went on to race therby reconciling with the fact that some1 myt get killed as a result of his actions……but this again ladies and gentlemen will nt be easy let me u ryt now,coz mjubanaslegal team will b fytn wit everything they ggot to make sure he does not see jail,afterall thats y he is paying them ryt?
Ok if the murder charge fails then the state will have to b content with a charge of culpable homicide that will require fault in the form of negligence…..easier to prove for the state than a charge of murder……
Hope u now hav an insyt into a general view of a criminal trial….
no one is perfect in this world ,everyone have mistakes and everyone need to be given a second chance to correct his or her wrong doing.Jub jub bad driving resulted in a very painful thing although it like but he deserve to be given a second chance as everyone else.This is very painful to everyone and him as well. Let not make him suffer he is already suffering .LET just put everything to GOD.Forgiving is the key at this moment.I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO SEND CONDOLENCES TO THE FAMILIES.EVERY THING HAPPENS FOR A REASON GOD IS THE ONLY PERSON WHO KNOWS WHY HE ALLOW THIS TRAGEDY TO HAPPEN.
I`m disappointed at the fact that it is very easy for us to be so judgmental , in honest fact what happened was not right and definitely unintentional , it`s easy to cast a stone when you are on the other side but the fact is mistakes happen , at times we get so excited by our emotions that we forget to rationalize about the decisions that we make , this is what happened to Molemo ,My condolences to the families who lost their loved ones, to Molemo & Tshabalala`s families as well , they all need our prayers and support regardless of who is wrong …..it could have been any of us because 90% of the time we do illegal things without even thinking twice, e.g. drinking and driving, Are we so hard because he is a celebrity & will he get a fair trial, remember that you are innocent until proven guilty, in this case we all know that he was wrong but is he guilty of Murder or culpable homicide?? There was no intention at all and most importantly it is their constitutional right to get a fair trial….. Let’s not take that away from them because the fact is we are all equal in the eyes of the law regardless of our status, I guess that is how it’s supposed to be.
Jub jub must go to jail for the rest of his life, if you give him bail, we will take the law into our own hands.Jub must be the example for other CELEBS who do DRUGS
What will taking the law in ur own hands change? You will find urself where Jub is right now and u will b putting ur family through emotionally and financial strain instead…Do u own a car Thulie Boy? If u so, I guess ur so perfect that u have never got behind the wheel being under the influence and in that case I would say CONGRADULATIONS that makes u a saint.
To answer your question Jaxx82 .YES..I have lost direct family member in a car accident 2 years and 7 months ago and it was not her fault what so eva and yes my family and I knew the person responsible and we forgave him and we do not regret making that decision cause we understood that it was not his intention to take her life..
jaxx82 cudnt have said it beta. mr say it like it is, if u were the one who had a child robbed of his future by some recklessness wud u be saying lets throw stones at the one who sins etc etc etc. we knw the bible verse but they are a lot of other verses that guide us in the correct behaviour. guys please the last thing the families want to hear at this point in time is how we all make mistakes and lets not point fingers. jub jub messed up thats it, families are grieving and are in serious depression abt what happended to them so pliz comfort them dnt anger them!
Phumie u talk about having a family member being robbed of a future.. I have experienced that 1st hand, I have lost a sister in a car accident and she was robbed of her bright future due 2 some being 2 excited and irresposible ( I know the pain and i dont wish it on any1). All I’m saying that is this anger is not going get any1 anywhere. It could have been your brother, boyfriend etc that has accidentally taken a live in this case lives and u would wish that he would be forgiven, would u?
AFTER READING ALL YOUR COMMENTS, I SAT AND THOUGHT TO MYSELF…”HOW DOES THIS GUY SLEEP AT NIGHT?” I DNT KNO WAT I’D DO IF I WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DEATHS OF ANY AMOUNT OF PEOPLE. THE FACT IS HE WAS WRONG FOR DRINKING AND DRIVING AND SUBSEQUENTLY KILLING 4 KIDS AND SERIOUSLY INJURING 2 OTHERS AND THEREFORE HE SHOULD BE TRIED AND SENTENCED (ALONG WITH HIS CO-ACCUSED). WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR CARRER, SOCIAL CIRCLES, ETC? TO MANY YOUNG SOUTH AFRICANS JUB JUB WAS THEIR MUSICAL “HERO”, BUT HEROES ARE ONLY AS GOOD AS THEIR GREATEST F**K UP. THE SAD THING IS THAT HE WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED AS “JUB JUB…THE GUY WHO KILLED 4 KIDS AND INJURED 2 AND WAS DRUNK AND APPARENTLY HIGH ON DRUGS AND S**T.” I’M NOT ASKIN U 2 FEEL SORRY FOR THE GUY…PLEASE DON’T IF THAT’S HOW U FEEL AND IF U DO THEN IT’S STILL COOL. THE CHOICE IS YOURS, THE SAME WAY THE CHOICE WAS HIS TO DRINK AND DRIVE IN A BRAVE DISPLAY OF TESTOSTERONE.
Jub should serve some time in jail and we’ll see how being a stupid celeb pays back …
i think people stop making their own judgement on jub jub,yes we all agree that the he must go to jail,but yet again accindents happen every day taxi drivers kill people daily due to reckless driving and people and media won’t say all this bad about like they do now with jub jub,or is it because his a celebrity and we always expect the best out of and again we forget that his human and human’s are not perfect and mistake happen to any one and let’s not forget that the deffination of Mistake is ” unplanned happening that may cause damage” so people forget that when god created human being he did provide a manual on how to live perfect without mistakes so people give jub jub a break and let the law play it’s part
he suks,he shud go 2 jail wat a jackass he is!!!!…………….blah blah blah half of u right now party get drunk and yet got the nerve 2 past judgements waist u freakin time going 2 church every sunday and yet leak the most basic of them all FORGIVENESS! FOR **** SAKES FORGIVENESSSSSSS! HIPOCRITS dats wat we are!
Mr saying it like it is i think u should shut up cuz u don’t know wat u talking about, either u r stupid or ignorant cuz jub nd his friend were tested nd dey found cocaine nd morphine in their urine nd blood so obviously dey were using drugs so stop defending dem cuz if u were in jubs’ shoes i don’t think he would give a **** of wat happens 2 u. get real ok?
It saddens me to think that so many young lives have been lost unnecessarily, and then you think again that SA law has so many loops together with the actual people running it.
Mandoza got away with murder and with a very good lawyer, Jub Jub will get away with just a slap in the hand.
1. they are charging him with murder, i am not a lawyer but how is he being charged with murder, there is no intent? it is corporal homocide.
dont get me wrong here in no possible way am i on Jub’s side.
i am against the our laws and people getting away with ‘murder’.
Scenario; Jubs will get away with it, go home, a close relative will take the law into his/her own hands – he is the one that will be crucified!!!
I dont like commenting on people but Gandhi please take your legal comment somewhere else – maybe high school class. It is very legally simply for the state to win this case – only if people involved do not temper with the evidence. If they do get their emotions involved and temper with evidence to get the accused in jail – they will lose the case. They have been charged with murder which in this case easy to prove as much as it can be a complex process which I do not think I should bore you with all that legal talk. Lack of judgment on part of the accussed is the main problem … from the beginning. Dont drink and drive, and in this case, drag race.
Yes, we don’t have the right to judge, however, I feel that Celebrities think that they can get away with anything becoz of their status. I can name a few who were in the same scenario. But they need to know that nobody is above the law. Jub jub is shaming the Christians, here he is sing Gospel yet his lifestyle contradicts what he’s preaching. Alcohol is one thing but drugs… they have to be taught a lesson. People think prison is hell. It’s actually a place where you need to realise the mistake that you committed and learn how not to do the same mistake again in the future. Hence it’s called “Correctional Services”. Maybe they’ll get to find what they are truly looking for in life there and even be introduced to Christ.
Enough said… They made a mistake… But they could have stopped this from happening if they really used the brains that god gave them to stop for just one second and think “hey if I do drugs and drink and then go for a little wild ride things will turn out ok???” I think not…
They will get what they deserve in the end. Karma is a big fan of people who dont think of the tipe of consequences their actions will have.
Mr say it like it is. Im sorry for your loss. I lost my father 16 years ago due to someone elses dumb behavior.
Lets hope the law is on the boys who lost their lives side and on their familly. Hope that justice will provale in the end…
LOL. Enough said… He got of with R10000.00 bail. Our justice sytem is brilliant. Just goes to show if you are famous and you have money you can rule the world… Pathetic
@mashudu,dnt hate coz i got a lil understanding of how d justice system in RSA works,ur highly emotional baseless arguments dnt count here, justice z based on facts wetha ppl temper wit evidence o not the judiciary needs to make a ruling on what has been put b4 them, jub jub z walkin free i will tell u this not bcoz he is rich o a celeb bt bcoz the facts will demand such an outcome,ppl act as tho the live clean lives you mashudu f we put u under scrutiny will we find u innocent in all respects???? Are u sayin u r perfect?????u like all of us r human n thez nothin i repeat NOTHIN special abt u o ur opinion,so if u dont mind can we just see real lawyers and judges put their expertise to work and get on wit our f.u.c.k’n lives…..
the media z 2 blame 4 the hype on this case,they blew the whole thing out of proportion,feedin the masses with unproven facts and the STUPID ones are now threatening lives based on these allegations,killing jub jub as part of a mob sounds thrilling and the thing to do,but i tell you when they send u to jail u will be alone,so do the wise thing and let law be dealt with thoz that r qualified to do so….
Forgivness is a thing we all need to learn @ some point in our lives….
A good friend of mine once said that “forgivness is for people who dont know how to hate”. That was quite funny
what people do know is that we the public have had enough.mandoza killed 2 people but it was not taken seriously because the dead people were foreigners.lance davids also.dr khumalo forgot his driving skills and is still awaiting trial.we are baying for blood but the justice system will remain the same.they let off guilty people out innocent ones remain in jail because they don’t appear on tv.i was convicted of rape when apparently we had agreed with my own girlfriend to have ***,but when i told her i had no money for her hair she cried rape.jub jub you will reap what you sow.we will hunt you down as well as any other celebrity that comes free.
Thank you Ghandi
U said it just the way it is.. I shall say no more
only God knows why things turned this way who are we to judge jub jub.let the law take its coarse.
People easily forget that life is one massive ride..Wat hapend on the 8 March was an absolute accident but we were so quick to judge on alleged reports we read on the papers forgerting that they are after MONEY no one will ever know the truth only the LORD ,Themba,MOLEMO(JUB JUB ) WILL..Memory DUBE DIEPKLOOF EXT
Hayi bethuna into ka MOLEMO(jub jub) ayikho ntle into eyenzekileyo but then asimelanga ukuba simjaje only god who can jaja him.imini yabo ibifikile uba uthixo ebe ngavumi ukuthi abathathe imiphefumlo yabo bebezosinda,wonke umntu unexesha lokuhamba emhlabeni so imini yabo ibifikile.jub jub i wish i can help you xa uyo xoxa pls email me i will tell you wat to do love you,siya xolisa kwezofemeli zilahlekelweyo
nna kare hao bolaya ka chaka o tla swa ka chaka. ba lefatshe se moa tlholeng, ramasedi ke ene a itseng.
Guys i really cant believe you are still on about this issue ya bo Jub Jub. Him and Themba will get what they deserves either by law or not like Spargie/Lucas said you live by the gun, you will die by the gun. Truth is its not up to us what judgement they are going to get.
I dont believe people are still on about this issue,we are all human and no one has the right to judge only God can judge people for the bad things they do,we all make mistakes and asikho isono esincane kunesinye!
Why do they have to die due to those accidents? They’re just wasting their precious lives. There were so many people dying from car accidents because they were drunk.

March 11, 2010 at 5:08 pmJub and his friend must get life sentences finish & klaar! They are old enough to know that if you drink, use cocaine and drive there is a huge chance that you will cause death of injury to yourself and/or others. I don’t think this was the first time they did this. I appeal to SAfricans please drive carefully especially young men Speed Kills and it’s no joke.This happened in also inEmdeni last week, young men showing off!
