Police investigating human remains found on NW farm─── 11:47 Thu, 24 Oct 2019
Police are conducting forensics on a body found on a farm on the outskirts of Mooinooi in North West.
The remains are believed to be that of a missing 31-year-old man. Two suspects were arrested and charged with defeating the ends of justice.
"According to information available at this stage, the missing Majakaneng man was in the company of his friend when the suspects caught them stealing copper cables and water sprinklers. The friend allegedly ran away from the farm leaving the 31-year-old man behind with the suspects," says police spokesperson Sabata Mokgwabone.
"A follow- up which was done on information received led to another search on the farm. During the search, three empty cartridges and particles of what appeared to be human remains, were found. The suspects were then arrested."
The two suspects, Nick Els and Martinus Barnard, are out on bail and are expected to appear in the Brits Magistrate's Court on Thursday.
