Strand police are investigating a case of murder, after the body of a 45 year old man was discovered by relatives in his flat yesterday.

The deceased was naked and his throat was slit. Intense investigation by police led to the arrest of 3 suspects, one of which is a former policeman.

The flat was also ransacked but police could not yet determine what had been stolen.

“Yesterday at about 17:00, police also recovered the deceased’s blue VW Polo abandoned in Khayelitsha,” said SAPS spokesperson Inspector Walter Sinton.

The suspects will appear in the Strand Magistrates’ Court soon.
