KAGISANONG – The discovery of a body inside a pit toilet led to the arrest of a 34-year-old boyfriend for alleged murder.

On 03 November 2024 at about 11:10, a friend stormed into Kagisanong Police Station with allegations that he has seen a dead body in a pit toilet in Caleb Motshabi.

Police took him with and rushed to the scene.  On arrival at the shack, police were led to the pit toilet in the yard by a trail of bloodstains.  In the toilet, members made a gruesome discovery of the body of a 29-year-old female with multiple injuries on the head and upper body.

The 34-year-old suspect who is the deceased’s boyfriend, was traced and arrested near their shack for the murder of his girlfriend and will appear in the Bloemfontein Magistrate court soon.
