SABC Free State mourns another death of journalist killed in car crash

The SABC News office in Bloemfontein is reeling in shock and devastation following the death of a video journalist Moleboheng Khaeane.

The 33-year-old succumbed to her injuries after the vehicle she was driving collided head on with a truck on the N-1 about 40 kilometers from Bloemfontein this morning.

It is believed that one passenger who was in the car with her was seriously injured and taken to hospital.

The police are investigating a case of culpable homicide.

The death of Kheane has been described as the biggest loss to the industry and the country as a whole.

“Khaeane worked in the North West SABC news office before joining the Bloemfontein office last year, this loss is a major loss to journalism fraternity,” said the SABC News in Bloemfontein.

In April this year, the SABC Bloemfontein office suffered a major blow after provincial editor, Teboho Letshaba passed away following a short illness.

The 40-year-old has been within the ranks of the SABC since 2008, starting as a Reporter at the Bloemfontein office, he went on to become an Assignment Editor then later a Programme Manager at Motsweding FM.

Letshaba was a sports enthusiast, Sesotho author and a legal graduate.
