Pensioner’s body found with missing parts

His body was found on a rock by a police officer.


The mutilated body of 61-year-old was discovered in KwaNyamazane, Mpumalanga.

According to provincial police spokesperson Lieutenant-Colonel Jabu Ndubane, the body was discovered by an officer who was driving from Pienaar Police Station to his home in KaNyamazane at about 3am on Wednesday, Mpumalanga News reported.

His body was found on a rock at Section 4 near “The Big” shop.

“All roleplayers were summoned to the scene including the deceased’s family who identified him as Albert George Simelane,” he said.

“What forms a puzzle is that no blood traces were found on scene, and it is then suspected that the old man was murdered somewhere else before being dumped on the scene,” Ndubane explained.

No arrests have been made.
