According to eyewitnesses, Mr. Mesembe met his death after being found standing on the street by suspected Vikings and Skylow members whom people say had mobilised for a hit, and when they could not find the person, spotted Mesembe and after a shout from one of them that he was the one, was shot and cut with machetes several times.
