Briefing the media in Kempton Park on Monday night, Deputy National Police Commissioner Tebello Mosikili says the deceased appear to have been sexually molested.
“We know that they were all sexually molested, or at least the majority of them; They were found to be sexually molested, except for one that was found in a state of decomposition. But the other four yes, the team can confirm that they were sexually molested.”
“The details of others, I did allude to that so far, only two have not yet been identified. So out of the five here in Kempton Park, the only two bodies have not yet been identified,” she adds.
