Ntuli commends arrests in KZN murder cases
KZN Premier Thami Ntuli says arrests made in separate murder cases this week show that criminals have nowhere to hide.
On Monday, a former Umzimkhulu municipal manager was re-arrested for the 2017 murder of former ANC Youth League secretary-general Sindiso Magaqa.
Zweliphansi Skhosana's matter in the local court was postponed to later this month.
On Wednesday, two more suspects were arrested for the murder of DA Umngeni Councillor Nhlayenza Mdlovu.
Two men were nabbed on Thursday for the murder of KwaDukuza official Nokulunga Mashabane.
Her husband, Thobani Nzama, and his alleged accomplice Sipho Mgwaba appeared in court on Friday.
They will remain in custody until a bail hearing next Friday.
The Premier's spokesperson Lindelani Mbatha says Ntuli has emphasised the provincial government's ongoing commitment to securing a justice for victims of violence.
“Particularly women, children, and political leaders targeted for their service.
"He further affirmed that the government of provincial unity remains fully dedicated to ending gender-based violence, political killings, and all other forms of power and crime."
