Preliminary investigation reveals that she was violently attacked and may have been raped.
According to Lieut Kwendzakwakhe Ngobese from Boksburg SAPS, the woman was seen with her friends at a tavern on Saturday afternoon, before she had gone missing.
“Her body was then found in the field nearby the tavern – about 50m away from Main Reef Road,” said Ngobese.
Ngobese said that her head had been smashed in, apparently with a brick (which was found on the scene).
