THERE was cheering and ululating as two newlyweds celebrated their marriage on Sunday.
But a few hours later, the celebration turned to tragedy when a guest was shot dead, allegedly by the groom!

His sister, Ntombifuthi Sibiya (32), said her family was left with many unanswered questions after the incident that killed her brother and left another person wounded.
a�?We dona��t know what happened before he was shot.
a�?People told us Delani was just in the wrong place at the wrong time as the suspect was trying to break up a crowd of villagers who were fighting.
a�?Others told us the scene of the crime was many metres away from where the fight took place. We dona��t know who to believe.a�?
Ntombifuthi said after receiving a call about what had happened, she rushed to the scene and found her brother dead.
a�?My heart broke when I saw him lying dead. This man didna��t have to end my brothera��s life,a�? she said.
