Nicolas John, a Nigerian who was beaten into a coma by hoodlums in South Africa over a stolen laptop, has died.

Nicholas died as a result of his injuries from the beating, but the South African thief who stole and sold the laptop to Nicholas went unhurt.

Nicholas, who was fighting for his life at Kimberly Hospital’s Intensive Care Unit, was alleged to have had his brain moved as a result of the pounding, with water finding its way into his head.

Although the water was drained, the Nigerian who had been in the country for years did not survive.

Nicholas was alleged to have bought a stolen laptop from another South African. The owner of the laptop apprehended the South African who stole the laptop and he took him to the Nigerian who bought it.

The Nigerian, who bought it, had sold it apparently to another Nigerian, Nicholas.

The hoodlums asked him to call the Nigerian he sold it to and he did, but when he arrived, Nicholas told them that he didn’t have the laptop anymore but agreed to pay them for it.

The owner of the laptop agreed but the owner came with a group which wanted to rob him of his phones and he refused, which resulted in them beating him to coma.
