Over the weekend, a tragedy unfolded in the Delft area of Western Cape as four people were shot in an abandoned building. Unfortunately, despite the valiant efforts of the medical personnel, two of the victims lost their lives. The police arrived at the scene and have since launched a search for the suspects. Warrant Officer Joseph Swartbooi has confirmed that the case is being treated as murder and attempted murder. While the investigation is still ongoing, this incident is a stark reminder of the importance of continued efforts by law enforcement agencies in combating crime.
Thabo Bester, a South African fugitive, and his accomplice, Dr. Nandipha Magudumana, were arrested in Tanzania on Friday night, after a prolonged investigation and search. Bester escaped from the Mangaung Correctional Centre on 3 May 2022 by faking his death in a cell fire. Since then, he and Magudumana had been living in a rented mansion in Sandton, where they operated Arum Properties together, scamming several people into paying millions for construction projects that were never completed.
