Johannesburg, South Africa: Where speaking out against corruption can be a death sentence. The country has a thriving marketplace of hitmen, known as Izinkabi, with killings commissioned through middlemen and carried out for relatively small sums. Once the preserve of gangland turf wars, a hitman’s services are now used to settle scores across the country, with 141 targeted killings in 2022 alone. Now, reporter Darshna Soni investigates the business of contract killers used to silence whistleblowers. Soni follows a grieving wife trying to secure justice for her husband. Johannah Phenya’s husband Eric was murdered after the couple uncovered evidence of alleged fraud connected to a government contract. Johannah now lives in hiding, and Soni hears the chilling death threat the couple received, warning that both had been targeted. Weeks later, Eric was ambushed and shot dead in broad daylight. Nearly four years later, his alleged killer has yet to face trial, while those who ordered the murder remain unidentified. But who are the killers? Soni tracks down a former hitman who claims to have carried out eight murders, revealing how poverty provides a ready supply of recruits, while those who order the killings often remain hidden. The family of another murdered whistleblower, Mpho Mafole, are also still waiting for answers. Mpho was investigating alleged irregularities in an £80 million municipal contract when he was ambushed and killed. Feeling frustrated by the pace of the justice system, his family rely on investigative journalists and private investigators to uncover who was behind his death.
