Singer Kharishma
A second victim involved in the car accident that left Limpopo singer Kharishma seriously injured has reportedly died, deepening the tragedy surrounding the late-October collision in Polokwane.
Kharishma, real name Melita Magole, was travelling with her colleagues on 31 October when their hatchback collided with a bakkie at the intersection of Grobler and Magazyn streets.
The impact claimed the life of the driver, 23-year-old musician and University of Limpopo student Vincent Maphopha, who died at the scene.
Both Kharishma and another passenger were rushed to hospital with severe injuries.
According to a report by Daily Sun, that second passenger, also a local artist and student, has now died at Pietersburg Hospital.
The Limpopo Artists Movement confirmed the passing on Saturday, 15 November.
Maphopha, who was a respected keyboard player and a final-year BSc student, was laid to rest in his hometown of Groblersdal on 9 November.
His funeral was attended by the MEC for Sport, Arts and Culture, Funani Maseko, along with several members of the Limpopo Artists Movement, led by Mphoza Mashabela.
