The North West High Court in Mahikeng is expected to hand down a judgment on a premeditated murder case of a prominent businesswoman, the late Kgomotso Serei. It is alleged that, Tumo Phatudi, Zwelinzima Mohapi, and Lebogang Serei were arrested in connection with her murder.
Kgomotso, who owned a mortuary was shot dead, while at her business office in 2017. According to the investigation, Lebogang Serei, who is a stepson to the deceased allegedly hired hitmen to kill Kgomotso.
It is alleged that the motive behind the killing was prompted by a ‘will’ that Lebogang’s father signed and made Kgomotso a beneficiary. This allegedly caused a feud between the deceased and the accused.
Meanwhile, the Taung Community against Crime organisation’s chairperson, Peggy Molathegi said then: “We will continue to follow up on this case. We want to see suspects rotting in jail and the law must prevail.”
