Crimes threatening the safety of our communities will remain a priority for the Western Cape and we will not allow murderers to evade the long arm of the law. This is what Nyanga detectives proved on Friday night 22 february 2019, when they arrested three suspects on murder charges.

Two of the suspects aged 21 and 24 were sought for killing a 24 year old woman who was shot and killed in her residence during January this year in Lusaka. The third suspect arrested by Nyanga detectives on Friday is a 24 year old man wanted for two murder cases which he allegedly committed in November last year and January this year and an attempted murder and arson case which also occurred in January 2019.

He is also linked to a recent murder case which occurred on Wednesday night 20 February 2019, where a 34 year old man was shot several times in Lusaka. The deceased is the boyfriend of the woman who was killed in January allegedly by the two suspects aged 21 and 26.

The suspects are all due to make court appearances on Monday 25 February 2019, to face the respective charges against them.

The Provincial Commissioner of the Western Cape police, Lieutenant General KE Jula expressed his gratitude towards the selfless efforts by investigators to ensure that justice can prevail in this Province.
