Teen cutting trees to pay rent killed in freak chainsaw accident
By Charlene Somduth
Durban - YUNUS Pillay had dreams of giving his mother a better life.
But on Thursday, Yunus, 17, from Northdale in Pietermaritzburg, was killed when a chainsaw fell on his chest while he was cutting trees for his landlord to pay the rest of his motherâs rent.
Yunus shared a one-bedroom outbuilding with his mother, Selvie, sister Charlene, and uncle Kuben.
Selvie was unable to work because she is ill; Charlene could not find employment due to Covid-19. Kuben s grant of R1 800 and assistance from other family members helped them through the month.
