Two men were arrested following the murder of an off duty RUSA Officer who went to the assistance of an elderly woman and her grandson in Everest Heights, Verulam, KZN.

28 Year old Mduduzo Makhanya was repeatedly stabbed after he intervened in an argument between a property owner and two of her tenants at her residence on Saturday May 18, 2019.

According to reports from the scene an elderly woman was attempting to evict the two men who lived on her property when they started to threaten her and her grandson.
