Free State police have suspended the search for three Lesotho nationals in the Sand River near Thabong in Welkom.

The body of another Lesotho man was found in the river on Thursday.

 His hands had been bound with cable ties and he had been shot in the back of the head.

Divers could not found any trace of another three men believed to have suffered the same fate. The victims are believed to have been illegal miners who were attacked by a rival group.
