Ekhombe SAPS secured a warrant of arrest for Nkosinathi Mthokozisi Malevu of Nsingabantu reserve, however, he is reportedly at large.

According to King Cetshwayo Cluster police spokesperson Captain Siyanda Shangase, Malevu went to his girlfriend’s house in Madlozi and on his arrival, he shot both women before fleeing the scene.

“Two cases of murder were registered at Ekhombe SAPS for further investigation and our members have been looking for him since then. The suspect went on to threaten his grandmother, father and witnesses through phone calls and text messages. As a result, they are in hiding.
