The Polokwane Magistrate’s Court
The bail application by three people accused of nine murders for an insurance claim is resuming at the Polokwane Magistrate Court in Limpopo.
Sergeant Rachel Kutumela, her sister Anna Shokane and daughter Flora Shokane allegedly benefited millions of rands after nine people died mysteriously.
Investigating officer Keshi Mabunda is expected to testify and oppose bail in the multi-million-rand insurance murder case.
In the previous appearance, Mabunda told the court that whenever the insurance claims were paid, Kutumela and Anna would transfer funds to each other, then to Flora and other family members.
He further went on to say that Kutumela has since resigned from the South African Police Service.
Kutumela’s alleged insurance killing spree started in 2017.
Investigations into the involvement of the accused’s other family members are ongoing.
The bail application will now be heard over the course of two days.
