Police Sergeant and civilian arrested in connection with the murder of taxi boss
A police sergeant and a civilian, aged 46 and 49, respectively, appeared briefly in the Seshego Magistrate's Court on 3 October 2024, in connection with the 2020 murder of Tlou Godfrey Phihlela, a 41-year-old taxi owner. Phihlela was shot multiple times near Seshego Hospital on 18 October 2020.
The Provincial Murder and Robbery Unit led an extensive investigation, which identified the suspects in 2024. After obtaining an arrest warrant on 1 October 2024, the suspects were apprehended on 2 October 2024. They opted not to apply for bail, and the case has been postponed until 13 November 2024, for further investigation.
Interestingly, further probe revealed that the suspects were allegedly hired by another Seshego taxi owner, who himself fell victim to murder in Polokwane in April 2023.
