Police said another man later arrived at the scene and identified the deceased as his cousin from Mozambique. While it is alleged that the two men had earlier argued over a girlfriend, police say it is not yet clear whether the dispute is linked to the fatal stabbing.
Sekgobela confirmed that no arrests have been made, and the circumstances surrounding the murder remain under investigation. “All role players were summoned to the scene. No arrest has been made, and the suspect is still on the run.”
The body was transported to the Germiston Mortuary for further investigation.
