To get to the car, they decided to walk but were accosted in the “vicinity of Agricola”, according to Jeffrey.
Their assailants were armed and they were robbed of jewellery, phones and wallets. Jeffrey said that a confrontation during the robbery resulted in him being shot to the right ear.
In a statement, Jeffrey said that he was treated at the Balwant Singh Hospital and discharged, after the incident.
