NORTH West police arrested two suspects in connection of an attempted murder case that took place a week ago.

Taung Magistrates Court prosecutor was allegedly stabbed on his head and stomach last week Saturday at Rooival village, near Taung.

Sandile Mbogazi(38) was allegedly stabbed at a tavern in Rooival after an argument ensued between him and the suspects.

He was airlifted to a private hospital in Johannesburg after he suffered terrible injuries on his head and stomach. Police could not link the attack to Mbogazi’s work even though unconfirmed reports suggested that he was attacked by one of the suspect’s allies, who was sanctioned to prison for six years.

Umthuthuzile Kula (22) and Siyabonga Forane(26) briefly appeared before court on Monday for attempted murder, and their case was postponed until 15 June 2015.

North West police spokesperson sergeant Kealeboga Molale said the police made a breakthrough and the two will remain in custody and investigations continue until their next bail appearance.
