Western Cape Provincial Commissioner, Lieutenant General Yolisa Matakata visited the Pine Valley informal settlement in Wolseley where three bodies were discovered over the weekend. The visit to the area was kicked off with a briefing at the police station led by the Worcester cluster commander, Major General Nomthetheleli Mene and Wolseley station commander as well as station management.
The 33-year-old suspect arrested has been charged with murder and will appear in court on Tuesday, 27 October 2020 in Wolseley. The man was seen on Saturday evening 24 October 2020, dragging something that turned out to be the body of a local 20-year-old woman in the Pine Valley informal settlement in Wolseley.
On Sunday, police were called out to the area again where a shallow grave was discovered on an open field by a passer-by. With the assistance of the forensic pathology services, a yet-to-be identified woman’s body was dug up from the shallow grave. A further search of the area by police led to the discovery of another grave not far from the first one. A second body whose identity, age and gender have not been determined yet, was discovered.
