An intelligence led joint operation, comprised of various Police Units, resulted in a major breakthrough when a 35 year old wanted suspect was arrested that was allegedly involved in the killing of an 11 year old girl at Ga-Marishane Village in the Nebo Policing area outside Groblersdal.

This arrest follows an incident of murder, which occurred between 5 and 6 September 2019, when the 11 year old girl allegedly left home to school on 5 September 2019 and never returned. She was reported as missing to the Police and a search operation ensued until her body was found on 6 September 2019.

The cause of death on this young girl is not clear at this stage but ongoing Police investigations, including the autopsy, will tell.

The suspect will appear before the Nebo Magistrate Court on Monday the 16 September 2019, facing a charge of murder.
