” I always look out for him. The conduct that these thieves did really hurts me because it resulted in the death of our dad.”

A source who wishes to remain anonymous confirmed to FBC News that Kurusaravi did not say that he was hurt or injured but asked to knock off early around 5:20pm before the supermarket closed.

Salele says that she is note aware if her husband has any health complications.

“My husband never told me that he had high blood pressure or any health complications he was just saying that he was injured that was what he told us right before he passed away.”

The devastated mother and wife say she will now have to struggle to support her young children as her husband was the main breadwinner.

Police Spokesperson Ana Naisoro says that no report was lodged in relation to this incident.

The anonymous source confirmed to FBC News that no report was lodged as the three boys agreed to pay for the chocolate.

A post-mortem examination has been scheduled to determine the cause of death.

FBC News had sent questions to the supermarket’s HQ but no response had been received yet.
