He was reportedly shot dead after being struck by a police bullet aimed at dispersing a disgruntled crowd that had gathered. Residents have been trying to force their way into hundreds of government container homes originally built as Covid-19 shelters.
Popularly known as Fearless Radical Commissar, Mphahlele is the first-born of the Baroka boss.

MOSHE MPHAHLELE SHOT DEAD DURING THE ALEXANDRA PROTEST
The EFF believes the presence of security companies poses the risk of contaminating the crime scene in which they are allegedly implicated.
“We also demand the immediate suspension of all Johannesburg metropolitan police department officials involved in the incident leading to the death of fighter Moshe Mphahlele as they failed to manage the situation to ensure the safety of people.
“All police and security officers who were present at the scene should be suspended until a full report is concluded and delivered,” said the EFF in a statement.
This thing of hiding faces must come to an end. It must be declared a crime. What if you are a criminal yourself, hiding your face? Hiding your face from what? There’s no-one at war with anyone here. Why do you hide your faces?” Malema said.
“These companies must go. They are contaminating the scene. They are hiding the proof and they must leave.”
