A 37-year-old suspect is expected to appear in the Randburg Magistrates’ Court soon to face charges of murder.
According to Captain Makgowanyana Maja of the Randburg Police Station, on 24 August at about 11pm, on-duty officers received a call about an incident on the corner of Bram Fischer Drive and Jan Smuts Avenue.
“Upon their arrival, they met with a member of the public who pointed out the victim to them,” said Maja. The officers noted that the victim had stab wounds on the upper body. They summoned an ambulance but by the time they arrived the victim had succumbed to the injuries and was certified dead. After an investigation, a suspect was identified and arrested.
In a separate incident, two suspects aged between 23 and 27 years old were arrested on 25 August at about 5.40am after allegedly stabbing a victim. “The suspect was caught by officers while fleeing from the scene,” said Maja. The incident took place on the corner of Bram Fischer Drive and Dover Street.
