Dr Zamambo Siphakazi Mkhize's body was found in the boot of her car on J18 Road in Imbali on Friday night. 


Mkhize is said to have been reported missing by her husband last week after she did not return home from work and could not be reached on her phone. 


She was based at the Harry Gwala Hospital.
