A 49-YEAR-OLD woman is expected to appear at the Schweizer Reneke Magistrate’s Court on Monday for murder. According to North West police spokesperson, Col Adele Myburgh, the suspect was apprehended by Ipelegeng police on Friday for the alleged murder of her boyfriend (37).
“The police were called to the couple’s place in Charon Informal Settlement, where the victim was found inside the house with a stabbing wound in his chest. The man was declared dead on the scene by Emergency and Medical Rescue Services (EMRS) paramedics.
“It is alleged that an argument ensued between the victim and his girlfriend leading to the fatal stabbing. The acting North West Police Commissioner, Major General Dintletse Molefe condemned the incident and said that the police will continue to work hard to ensure that those who perpetrate crime including Gender-Based Violence (GBV) are brought to book,” said Myburgh.
Molefe once more urged members of the community to resolve their differences in an amicable manner rather than resorting to violence.
