VORNA VALLEY - A man allegedly killed his partner after a domestic dispute at their home in Robin Road, Vorna Valley on 23 March.
He was arrested later that day.
Midrand police communications officer Constable Matome Tlamela said security notified Midrand police that a man was fighting with his partner in their house. Security officers saw the man driving away from the house at high speed.
