Estcourt cannibalism case postponed
A cannibalism case against a traditional healer and three other suspects who allegedly killed women for their body parts has been postponed to next week for a formal bail application.
The group was arrested on Friday after one of the suspects handed himself over to police at Estcourt SAPS.
He then led officers to a home where they found the body parts of a woman.
The National Prosecuting Authority's Natasha Ramkisson-Kara says the suspects appeared briefly in the Estcourt Magistrate's Court yesterday.
