The so-called cannibalism case has rocked the small central town of KZN and grabbed headlines across the country. 


Four men were arrested earlier this month after one of them walked into the local police station and allegedly said he was tired of cannibalism.

The fifth suspect was arrested a few days later. One of the suspects is the brother of the men who rented a small thatched hut to the traditional healer. 


The landlord told Newswatch last week that he was shocked that his brother is among those arrested. He believes the traditional healer used money to lure the other suspects.
