A 35-year-old Port Elizabeth man has been sentenced to 25 years behind bars after admitting to killing a man to avenge the death of his father.
Brandon Lucas shot and killed 53-year-old, Niftagudin Mallick while he was walking down Bell Road with his wife in Gelvandale last year.
Mallick was shot in his neck and lower body and died on the scene.
After the murder, Lucas drove himself to the police station and handed himself over.
He willingly confessed that he murdered Mallick as vengeance for the murder of his father which he said was committed by his son in 2016.
Mallick's son was acquitted of the murder.
