Police have arrested 107 people
A total of 107 people were arrested on Tuesday for allegedly killing a woman by poisoning her in Madadana, near Bizana, Eastern Cape police said.
On Monday a group of local residents went to the house of the 49-year-old woman they accused of hiding a man who allegedly raped and killed an 18-year-old teenager on December 31, Captain Mlungisi Mathidane said.
They allegedly forced her to drink poison.
She later died after complaining about stomach cramps.
A murder case was opened.
The alleged rapist was arrested last week and had since appeared in court. He is still in police custody.
The group, comprising 38 men and 69 women, would appear in the Bizana Magistrate’s Court on Wednesday on a murder charge.

A year or so ago there was a story of a mother who called the police to arrest her son after he committed some serious crimes that included the use of an illegal firearm, yet we still have people who hide criminals, a rapist nogal. But also, killing her is also a more serious act, the law must take its course.Report Abuse
