A 28-year-old foreign national has been arrested in Krugersdorp, Gauteng, in connection with the gruesome murder of six people in uMlazi, KwaZulu-Natal — a case that sent shockwaves through the country in August 2024.
The arrest was carried out by KwaZulu-Natal police, who confirmed that the incident is believed to have been a revenge killing. Authorities are still searching for the suspect’s nephew, who remains at large and is considered a person of interest.
The motive behind the killings is still under investigation, but police sources suggest it may be linked to ongoing criminal feuds in the region.
Law enforcement officials have assured the public that they are pursuing every lead and are committed to bringing all those involved to justice.
The case has reignited concerns over violent crime, community safety, and the movement of wanted individuals across provincial lines, especially in high-density areas like Krugersdorp.
