On Monday, four people were arrested in connection with the disappearance of Aserie Ndlovu and Zodwa Mdhluli in February. 

 

Police say the first suspect is believed to have been the last person seen with the missing couple, while the second, third, and fourth suspects were found with vehicle parts believed to belong to Ndlovu.

 

Investigators had changed the missing persons case to one of kidnapping and car hijacking.

Speaking in Bloemfontein on Thursday, Masemola says the area where the remains were found was pointed out by one of the suspects who allegedly admitted to leaving the pair there.

 

" Will do the necessary processes in terms of DNA with the families and the remains that we found to check and confirm whether it is them or not."
