Human remains believed to belong to missing South African journalist Sibusiso Aserie Ndlovu and his partner Zodwa Precious Mdhluli were discovered in Limpopo province, more than two months after their disappearance.
The bodies exhibited advanced decomposition, and while DNA confirmation is still pending, forensic teams have tentatively identified them. Five suspects have been apprehended, and stolen items linked to the couple have been recovered.
Ndlovu and Mdhluli were reported missing on February 18, 2024, and their deaths underscore the pressing issue of violent crime in South Africa, which recorded over 26,000 murders in 2024.
