Three more suspects nabbed in Limpopo insurance murder case


The South African Police Service (SAPS) has arrested three more suspects in the case of former sergeant Rachel Kutumela in Polokwane, Limpopo.

They say they plan to arrest a total of seven suspects on Tuesday.

Kutumela, her sister Anna Shokane and daughter Florah Shokane are accused of killing nine people for financial gain, targeting vulnerable people for insurance pay-outs.

The trial against the suspects is expected to be heard in the High Court this year.

The case is similar to that of Nomia Ndlovu, a former police officer who was convicted of killing six people.
