KZN Safety MEC, Bheki Ntuli had tasked a provincial team which is a Serious Crime Violent investigation team to try and investigate these cases.


"I'm not going to let them do it at a local level, I have tasked General Jula to try and see if we can't put up a team that will come up with a result that we need," he said.
