‘Most wanted’ fugitive finally re-arrested

The most wanted Zimbabwean fugitive, who had been on the run for almost two years since his escape from a police van at Moutse Mall in Dennilton, has been re-arrested.

Lovemore Musoyi (32), who is facing more than 10 criminal cases, including murder, attempted murder, armed robberies, house robberies, business robberies, kidnapping, assaults, stock theft and possession of an unlicensed firearm and ammunition, have been re-arrested.

The arrested fugitive terrorised communities in Elandskraal, Motetema, Dennilton and Rakgoadi policing areas in Sekhukhune district during his alleged reign of terror.

Colonel Malesela Ledwaba, Limpopo Provincial Police spokesperson, said Musoyi’s luck eventually ran out when the police, working with private security, operationalised information and invaded his hideout in the mountains within the Rakgoadi policing area on Friday, January 3.

Ledwaba detailed that an unlicensed firearm was also confiscated from the suspect when he was arrested.

Musoyi is expected to appear before various Magistrate’s courts within the Sekhukhune district in due course facing several cases including escaping from lawful custody.
