Police arrested a man who was believed to have been motivated by jealousy, reported The Sowetan.
The suspect was one of the most wanted criminals in the area and was wanted for a string of other crimes, including robbery and murders in several Eastern Cape towns.
He was not identified.
The man was also under suspicion of killing his girlfriend who had disappeared some time ago.
Police spokesperson captain Mduduzi Godlwana said the suspect was “one of the most wanted men” and said most of the murders were committed after he escaped from court following an arrest last year.
“He will appear in court in connection with a lot of charges. He has been one of the most wanted men,” said Godlwana. — News24.
