Police in Rustenburg launched a manhunt for the four men involved in the murder.
“According to information available at this stage, the victim and her cousin were walking home from the shop and approaching the gate when one of the four unknown men who were following them, got closer and allegedly fired two shots,” said North West police spokesperson Brigadier Sabata Mokgwabone.Police in Rustenburg have launched a manhunt for the four suspects. They allegedly fled from the scene in a BMW.
“The victim‘s cousin ran into the yard and screamed for help. As a result, the victim’s brother got out of the house and spotted the suspects running away and eventually fled from the place with a BMW vehicle,” said Mokgwabone.Political killings ahead of elections The Rustenburg councillor’s murder is the latest in a handful of politically-motivated killings in South Africa this year alone.“What is also not helping is some of our political leaders who are using inflammatory language during their campaign instead of sticking to political diplomacy while wooing voters, thus, the incidents of the past few weeks are worrying and something should be done by the police and those in power to arrest this situation,” he said.
Ntuli also questioned the effectiveness of the police after nobody was arrested for any of the four murders in KZN in January. “The brazenness of the criminals who kill them shows that they knew there will not be any consequences for their actions,” he said.Fake police extort money to make ‘cases disappear’- Here are the scams to watch out for
