Three suspects have been detained in South Africa in connection with the mvrder of a woman in an area east of Johannesburg
It’s the last of nine recent cases in that region that has shone a spotlight on the level of violence against women in the country.
Under pressure to solve the spate of mvrders which has involved victims’ bodies being dumped on a roadside, police have described the arrests of the three – a man and two women – as a “breakthrough”.
Referring to all nine cases, acting police chief Lt Gen Puleng Dimpane said her officers were “working tirelessly to bring those responsible to justice”.
The three suspects are due in court on Monday morning.
Their case relates to the de.ath of Jabulile Ntimba, whose half-naked body was found wrapped in a sheet in Dawn Park last Thursday.
Several of the recent victims were discovered partially clothed and with injuries, but police have stressed that they have not established whether all the de.aths are connected or whether a serial k!ller is responsible.
