Durban- Chatsworth community members, once again, came out in their numbers, to support the families of Gona Pillay who was brutally murdered in her Silverglen home on September 20. 

Gathered outside the Chatsworth Magistrate's Court, many carrying placards calling for Justice for Pillay. 

Three men are expected to appear today. 

The 63 year old, former Southlands Secondary principal was regarded as a giant in the field of education. 

Pillay and her husband Loga, who survived the brutal attack, were duped into believing the robbers were potential home buyers when they were stabbed several times. Gona died at the scene. 

The couple's home in Silvercrescent was on the market.
