Police in North West have arrested 26-year-old Mfana Ngwenya who is accused of murdering his ex-girlfriend, Kgaugelo Nnonu Morata and allegedly attempting to kill his current partner in a violent stabbing spree.
“The suspect allegedly murdered his ex-girlfriend; a 20-year-old Kgaogelo Marota and attempted to kill his 20-year-old current girlfriend,” said police spokesperson Colonel Adéle Myburgh.
The Acting Provincial Commissioner of Police in North West, Major General Patrick Asaneng, praised officers for their quick action.
Myburgh said the body of Marota was discovered on Thursday, at a tavern in Maubane village.
She had sustained multiple stab wounds and was declared dead at the scene by Emergency and Medical Rescue Services (EMRS).
Investigations revealed that after allegedly stabbing Marota, the suspect went to his home, where he is believed to have stabbed his current girlfriend several times.
