“It is alleged that two suspects armed with a firearm and knives, attacked the tenants who were sleeping in their rented rooms at the back of the house. Afterwards, the suspects robbed the victims of their valuable belongings such as laptops, cellphones and clothes before they fled the scene,” police spokesperson Col Moatshe Ngoepe said.

“During the robbery, the suspects stabbed three female tenants,  killing a 23-year-old instantly, whilst the other two were seriously injured and admitted in hospital for medical treatment.”

The murders and robbery happened around 4am on Monday morning in Muledane, Thohoyandou.
