GQEBERHA - Whistleblowers are being silenced in the current murder capital of South Africa, the Nelson Mandela Bay Metro.

The recent murder of Pamela Mabini has left people questioning whether it's worth risking their lives to speak out against crime.

Another whistleblower says he's been receiving death threats, and that his family home was burnt down.

ANC Women's League secretary general Nokuthula Nqaba says the law is not doing as it should to protect people.
