The charred remains of a woman bring to three the number of murders in the black township of Mamelodi near Pretoria in a week.<\/p>\n
Police spokeswoman Captain Doniah Mothutsane said the body was found on Wednesday at 8am inside a municipal bin in an open veld.<\/p>\n
Mothutsane said police could not confirm if the body was linked to an alleged killer who was attacked by the community on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe modus operandi used in all three cases of women found murdered is not the same,\u201d Mothutsane said.<\/p>\n
When Letta Letsoalo\u2019s body was found, both her hands were tied, she said. The other victim, Katlego Ndlovu, 24, was found strangled with barbed wire.<\/p>\n
Wednesday\u2019s body was burnt beyond recognition.<\/p>\n
She has still not been identified.<\/p>\n
On Tuesday, black squatter residents of Marikana outside Mamelodi, viciously attacked a black taxi driver who they accused of killing the women.<\/p>\n
His shack and two cars were torched during the frenzied attack. In one of the cars believed to have been used in the alleged kidnappings, residents claim they found barbed wire and blood stains in the boot.<\/p>\n
Mothutsane said the man was being treated at the Steve Biko Academic Hospital. \u201cWe do not have anything linking him to the deaths and we cannot say that he is suspected of being a serial killer,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
