Their arrest follows a week after the court appearance of Sergeant Rachel Shokane Kutumela.


National police spokesperson Athlenda Mathe says the pair was arrested by the SAPS Limpopo tracking team in Mabokelele village on Thursday afternoon after the investigating officer obtained a J50 warrant of arrest.

 

"The pair is a 47-year-old nurse who is a sister to the Sergeant and the other is a 27-year-old daughter to the Sergeant.

 

"The pair is expected to appear together with the accused tomorrow (Friday) at the Polokwane Magistrate Court on various charges including murder, fraud and money laundering."


The 43-year old Kutumela is expected back at the Polokwane District Court on Friday.


She is accused of murdering at least six people for insurance claims between 2019 and 2024.


She allegedly benefited from insurance claims worth some R10 million.
