Limpopo police nabs ex-boyfriend for slain teacher’s murder
A 34-year-old man has been arrested in connection with the death of a local teacher at Dindela village in Limpopo.
The body of Dudu Masango, who worked as a teacher at Segolola Secondary School, was found with multiple stab wounds in her bedroom on Sunday.
Her ex-boyfriend was arrested soon after the discovery of Masango’s body after police found him in possession of her cell phone and car keys.
Provincial police commissioner Thembi Hadebe says Masango had previously laid a charge of rape against her ex-boyfriend.
He was arrested and later released on R500 bail.
“I am elated and pleased by the manner in which the station commander and her team handled this case,” says Hadebe.
“This shall not only restore confidence of the Hlogotlou community in the police but will also send a clear message that the loud cries of women of this country are not falling on deaf ears.
“We shall stop at nothing to ensure that justice is not only done but must be seen to be done.”
The suspect will appear in the Nebo Magistrate's Court on charges of murder and house robbery.
