a welfare check in Langley Crescent.
‘’An armed response officer greeted the police at the scene
and informed them that upon entering the premises, he discovered the lifeless
body of a female in a room. The house was in a state of disarray with numerous
household items and the deceased's vehicle stolen. It appeared as if blunt
force trauma to the body was the cause of death,’’ said Captain Adriana
Chandler.
Four suspects were arrested in Atlantis on Saturday, in
connection with the incident.
‘’The investigating officer followed up on available leads
and ultimately arrested a 41 year old female and three males between the ages
of 22 and 44 in Witsand, Atlantis on Saturday 30 March 2024 when they were
found in possession of the motor vehicle and valuables of the deceased,’’ said Warrant
Officer Joseph Swartbooi.
‘’Once charged the suspects are expected to make a court
appearance in the Cape Town Magistrates court on charges of murder and possession
of presumed stolen property,’’ he added.
