Lethole's family 'relieved' they now know the truth of how he died at Tembisa Hospital 28 January 2021 - 12:09 Image: #JusticeforShoni/Change.org The family of the man who was starved for over four days at the Tembisa Tertiary Hospital on the East Rand say they are relieved that they now know the truth behind their son's death. "The report provided answers to many questions we had. It is very disturbing...my son died a lonely death," said Shonisani Lethole's mother Patricia Lethole. In a press conference held on Thursday morning, she said she hopes the hospital urgently applies the recommendations of the health ombudsman, Prof Malegapuru Makgoba. "I was so shocked at how a hospital can be an enemy of truth...how can you deal with human beings if you cannot show the truth?" she asked.
