They made a breakthrough on Thursday.

"The suspects were the last persons to be seen with the missing men, and further investigations led the police to a secluded area in New Guelderland where human remains were found. 

“The recovered human remains will be subjected to DNA testing to ascertain if they belong to the men who were reported missing. Vehicles which were allegedly used during the disappearance of the two men were also found and seized."

The suspects will appear in the KwaDukuza Magistrate’s Court on Monday.
