Cele must find Hillary Gardee killers before we do - Malema
Updated | By Cliff Shiko
EFF leader Julius Malema says he cannot guarantee what will happen if the party finds the killers of Hillary Gardee before the police manages to arrest them.
Hillary Gardee is the daughter of former EFF secretary general Godrich Gardee.
The 28-year-old’s body was found dumped in bushes outside Mbombela on Tuesday after she was first reported missing on Friday.
Malema and EFF leadership visited the Gardee family in Mbombela on Wednesday to convey their condolences.
He said there is no indication that the murder was politically motivated.
"It is a pure criminality, and the motive can only be established once we have found the perpetrators. The report we have is that it is not a mission that comes from outside but internal, we have no reason to be looking over the borders as to who could have done this.
"We want to teach them a lesson, they have took a wrong one this time around. Anyone who touches our children touches us and they don't want to see the ugly side of the EFF. They invited it and we shall show them that ugly side of the EFF."
Police Minister Bheki Cele said on Tuesday that a 72-hour plan had been activated to track down the killers.
