9 February 2026- Two murder suspects aged 25 and 34 are expected to appear before Mahikeng Magistrate’s Court today for the alleged murder of Kgotso Mogale Rasebitsi (30). It is alleged that the Mahikeng Public Order Police (POP) officers were on patrol in Mosiane View on Saturday morning, when they were informed of a fight taking place.
The North West police spokesperson, Colonel Adele Myburgh said the police officers responded swiftly and found men sitting under a tree on the c/o Kubu and Mosese Streets. Myburgh said upon further investigation at a nearby shack, police noticed blood on the floor, which led to the discovery of the body of Rasebitsi.
“He was found lying inside the shack with numerous stab wounds and declared dead on the scene by Emergency and Medical Rescue Services (EMRS).
“Extensive investigations linked the two men who were sitting under the tree to the murder and they were subsequently arrested. The suspects are expected to appear before the Mahikeng Magistrate’s Court on 9 February 2026, on a charge of murder,” she said.
Meanwhile, the acting North West Police Commissioner, Major General (Dr) Ryno Naidoo, has commended the hard work of the police following the arrest of the suspects.
