Sixth body of a woman found in Ekurhuleni - EWN

Another woman's body has been discovered in KwaThema, in the City of Ekurhuleni, on Tuesday morning.

This is a confirmation from the South African National Police Service (SAPS).

The circumstances surrounding the discovery are not yet clear.

This comes hot on the heels of the discovery of four bodies in Kempton Park since July. The latest discovery of a woman’s body was made on Monday in Olifantsfontein.

Some of the victims were found on the side of the road bruised and half-naked.

The Deputy National Police Commissioner, Tebello Mosikili, said investigators are piecing together evidence to determine whether the deaths are linked.
