The Putfontein police are seeking assistance in finding the family of a young woman whose body was found dumped in Mayfield Extension One, Putfontein, on June 19.
The woman is believed to be in her late 20s.
Putfontein SAPS spokesperson Sgt Raider Ubisi said the woman’s upper body was burnt beyond recognition but there were no ashes or fire next to her body.
“It is believed she was murdered and burnt somewhere else and her body dumped in Mayfield,” said Ubisi.
“The young woman was wearing a pink top and black Adidas pants.”
Her body has been at the Springs government mortuary since June and police need the community to help with information in order to uncover the woman’s identity.
