A tip-off then led police to an area at premises belonging to the boyfriend’s family.

“What was initially thought to be a case of a missing person that was reported at Seshego Police Station in January… turned out to be a gruesome murder that was concealed for almost five months,” Mojapelo said.

The remains were exhumed from the shallow grave on Friday and the 30-year-old man was arrested. He faces charges of kidnapping and murder.
