Police in KwaZulu-Natal have arrested a suspect in connection with the disappearance of Siam Lee.

 

The 20-year-old was last seen in Durban North earlier this month with a body, believed to be hers, found only two days later.

 

The body, which was burnt beyond recognition, was found on a farm in New Hanover.

 

Lee's family has identified the body, but the police's Thembeka Mbhele says they are still waiting for DNA tests before they are able to officially confirm the victim's identity. 

 

The 29-year-old suspect was found with an unlicensed firearm and the vehicle Lee allegedly seen getting into on the day of her disappearance.

 

Mbhele says their investigation into the matter continues. 


The suspect is expected to appear in court soon.
