Speaking on behalf of Shell Downstream South Africa, Pam Ntaka disclosed that none of their employees were hurt on the evening that Kaizer Chiefs defender Luke Fleurs was killed.

Police Cooperation with Shell Petrol Station
Sunday World was informed by Ntaka that four gas attendants were on duty that evening. She added that at the time of the occurrence, there was just one employee and one cashier working in the back of the gas station.
Ntaka stated that they have provided the police with the information they have asked for in relation to the investigation.
She did, however, state that because the inquiry is still ongoing, they are unable to make any more disclosures.
“We are still dedicated to cooperating with law enforcement and assisting in their investigation. However, we don’t want to compromise the police investigation and we want to respect the family’s right to privacy. Regretfully, we are unable to disclose any information about the Wednesday night event,” the spokesperson stated.
