As soon as Sne returned to their home after Dhlomo’s arrest and subsequent release on bail, Sne’s worst nightmare could finally begin. Even though the Stokvel ladies came and protected Sne even while she was at work by chasing Dhlomo out, he was able to catch her alone in their lunch room.
Sne made an attempt to end her life by jumping off the roof of the hospital before Mbali was able to stop her. She did this because she was convinced that she could not get away from Dhlomo.
