SAPS spokesperson, Thulani Zwane says Mjadu's reign of terror came to an end thanks to DNA.
"In 2016, it is alleged that he overpowered a police constable of his firearm - in the Ezikhaleni area. During the scuffle, the police constable managed to arrest the suspect," Zwane said.
Zwane says while he was in custody, he was linked to all 19 charges.
