Rosemary Ndlovu convicted on six counts of murder
Former police officer Rosemary Ndlovu has been found guilty of the murders of her sister, nephew lover and three others.
Judgment was handed down on Friday at the Palm Ridge Magistrate's Court.
The former Tembisa police officer committed the murders between 2012 and 2018.
She received R1.4 million in insurance money from the deaths of the victims.
"I am satisfied that the state has proven its case beyond reasonable doubt and the version of the accused is rejected as not reasonably possibly true," said Judge Ramarumo Monama.
Over 50 witnesses testified in the trial and detailed how Ndlovu conspired and carried out these murders using hitmen.
"The accused is also found guilty on counts 3, 4,5, 6, and 8, meaning that she is found guilty of defeating the administration of justice, fraud on clientele limited, fraud on One life insurance, fraud on old mutual, and fraud on Assupol," added Monama.
He said the state failed to prove its case on another count of conspiracy to commit murder, however, he found her guilty of attempting to kill her mother.
The case will be back in court on November 5 for sentencing.
