A 57-YEAR-OLD man from Mokassa 1 village near Taung was killed in a ‘love triangle’ saga. According to the North West police, this comes after the suspect (41) allegedly found the deceased, Onkemetse Jeremia Morwaeng sleeping with his girlfriend on Thursday around 7am.
It is alleged that the woman was dating both the suspect and the deceased at the same time. North West police spokesperson, Capt Sam Tselanyane said the suspect was arrested after he allegedly stabbed Morwaeng to death with a knife.
“According to the information, the suspect allegedly entered the room where he found Morwaeng sleeping with his girlfriend (41). It is alleged that the woman in question was also Morwaeng’s girlfriend too.
“Upon finding the two, the suspect allegedly drew a knife and stabbed the victim once on the left of his upper body. The victim managed to flee to the other room where he collapsed.
After the incident, the suspect left together with the girlfriend to Mokasa 2 village,” Tselanyane said.
He said the police were informed about the atrocity and summoned to the scene. Tselanyane further said the members of the community in Mokasa 2, allegedly apprehended the suspect and took him back to the scene, where he was handed over to the police.
“As a result, a case of murder was registered and the suspect is expected to appear before the Taung Magistrate’s Court on 16 August 2021. Investigation into the matter continues,” he said.
