Updated | By Breakfast with Martin Bester
Liesl Allen went through a harrowing experience.
Liesl Allen booked an e-hailing service and when the vehicle arrived, she was mugged and her handbag and cellphone were taken in seconds.
The driver had allegedly been hijacked and what she thought would be a normal ride, would turn out to be a hijacking by criminals who intercepted her e-hailing booking.
