Kutlwano Ditsele | Alive after his 15-hour hijacking and kidnapping misery
Kutlwano Ditsele, film director and producer hinted his fans about the 15 hour hijacking and kidnapping misery that happened on the first dates of March.
Ditsele is a founding partner of Seriti Films who has been popular for Gomora telenova went far as sharing a photo taken a week to the hour he was kidnapped outside his home and taken to unknown location.
“[This picture was] taken exactly seven days to the hour after I was released from a harrowing 15-hour hijacking and kidnapping outside my house and taken to an unknown location. I was unharmed and had my gadgets and money from my bank account emptied. The only thing they took from me that is irreplaceable is my sense of safety.”
Speaking to reporter, Kutlwano explained his internal conflict as a person who loves his country.
“South Africa is the most beautiful country but sometimes it can bite you like it did me for the first time in my 37 years.”
He said co-operating with the criminals is the reasons he is alive.
“The advice I have to anyone who this might happen to is to co-operate, I know it sounds crazy but your life is more important than what they steal. I closed my eyes to not see their faces. I gave them everything they wanted and they let me go 15 hours later.
“One of the guys said to me: ‘I don’t want to do this but there is no work out there for us.’”
The Gomora creator said he was grateful he lived to tell the story.

“I’m thanking God that He saved my life. That even though the enemy tried to harm me, God protected me. A weapon was formed against me but it didn’t prosper. I walked through the fire but was not burnt. Praise be to Jehovah. Hallelujah”
