The Life and Times of Durban gang boss Brandon Puff Kalicharan
Brandon “Puff” Kalicharan, lived a fast and flashy life. He owned several high-performance cars worth millions of rands, threw flashy parties and wore only the best clothes.
He was also a notorious underworld figure in Durban who ran the 11th Street Gang - named after the unit in Chatsworth he was from - and built his drug distribution empire by waging a bloody war on the streets of Chatsworth by taking out his rivals in drive-by shootings.
Observers say the key to his success was forging ties to street gangs across Durban including the feared Cartel gang in Wentworth. Always by his side was his wife Joelene Naidoo-Kalicharan who embraced the life-style and was known for her expensive taste in clothes and jewellery.
At 2.30pm on Tuesday afternoon, as South Africa observed Human Rights Day, the lives of the Kalicharans including that of their innocent nine-year-old daughter would come to an end. On Peters Road in Springfield Park - an industrial zone in Durban - heavily armed gunmen pulled up alongside the family’s VW Amarok and sprayed it with bullets from both sides. More than 50 rounds of high calibre bullets penetrated the car. Brandon and Joelene were struck multiple times and died on the scene. Their nine-year-old daughter was still alive by the time paramedics arrived and was rushed to hospital. She would later succumb to her injuries.
