New Year’s Day in Du Noon, and found the naked body of a 26-year-old woman at
about 19:00 at Ngena Street.
‘’Initially, an inquest case was registered for
investigation. During the post mortem it was determined that she was raped and
strangled to death. Statements were obtained and the only person who had access
to the house and who was last seen at the house before the body was discovered,
was the male suspect believed to be from Nyanga area. The suspect could not be
traced and according to information received he was hiding somewhere in Grabouw
area,’’ said Captain F.C. van Wyk, Western Cape police spokesperson.
Van Wyk said officers were patrolling the Barrydale area on
Tuesday when they found a suspicious looking person walking in the street.
‘’The members stopped the male suspect and interrogated
him. During this interrogation the suspect admitted to be a wanted suspect in a
Milnerton murder and rape case committed in Dunoon. The suspect was immediately
arrested when the members confirm the incident with Milnerton SAPS detectives.’’
The 40-year-old male suspect will appear at the Cape Town
Magistrate's Court on Friday on the mentioned charges.
