Two more suspects connected to Sergeant Rachel Shokane-Kutumela have been arrested in relation to the ongoing investigation into six insurance-related murders.
Shokane-Kutumela, 43, appeared in court on 11 October on six charges of murder and around 17 cases of fraud. The state opposed her bail.
The new arrests were made this afternoon, 17 October, by the SAPS Limpopo tracking team in Mabokelele village, following the issuance of a J50 warrant by the investigating officer.
The suspects are a 47-year-old nurse, who is Shokane-Kutumela’s sister, and a 27-year-old woman, identified as the sergeant’s daughter.
Both suspects are scheduled to appear alongside the accused tomorrow, Friday 18 October, in the Polokwane Magistrate’s Court. They will face charges including murder, fraud, and money laundering.
