SA: Seven local muti murderers in the dock

WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

A former policeman is among six men and a woman suspected of being behind the muti murders of nine women in areas south of Durban.

The seven appeared in the Pinetown regional court on Tuesday after the matter had been moved from the Umbumbulu magistrate’s court for safety reasons. Relatives and friends of the murdered women packed the court on Tuesday to attend the hearing.

The dead women came from Umbumbulu, Folweni, Adams Mission and KwaMakhutha. It is suspected that they had been murdered for muti purposes.

Former policeman Sandile Bhengu, 34, was joined in the dock by Thini Dumakude, 38, Muzi Khoza, 53, Popo Bhengu, 19, Clement Ngcobo, 43, and Abigail Njapha, 63, a traditional healer.

The men are charged with murder and Njapha with conspiracy to commit murder.

Xolani Bhengu, 19, who was also charged with murder, has turned state witness.

Magistrate Stanley Gumede said that Bhengu would be held at the Umbumbulu Police Station for further investigations.

The five men and Njapha were remanded to Westville Prison. However, Gumede ordered that they be held separately, because it was reported that they had been ill-treated by other Westville inmates.

KwaMakhutha traditional healer Teresa Ndlovu said that the muti allegations accompanying Njapha’s arrest had led to all traditional healers being distrusted by locals.
