Almost four months after the murder of Sbongile Ditsela in a staged house robbery, police have arrested her estranged husband for allegedly hiring hitmen to kill her.
Limpopo police spokesperson Lt-Col Mamphaswa Seabi said an investigation had established that Alias Kotswana Ditsela, 52, allegedly hired two men to kill Sbongile at their home in Onverwacht, outside Lephalale. He was arrested on Sunday in Ga-Seleka village, Lephalale.
Seabi said Sbongile was killed in June. On the day she died, her estranged husband had come to the house to make arrangements to collect his daughter after school. “After the domestic worker opened for him, he went straight to the bedroom where he found his wife lying in a pool of blood with multiple stab wounds. Police were called to the scene and upon arrival, they found that the suspects broke the window to gain access to the bedroom without anyone inside the house noticing. The suspects took the deceased's cellphone and car keys. The deceased was found strangled with a rope.
