Woman kidnapped, strangled: Durban man arrested in Eastern Cape

A woman’s 37-year-old husband, a 40-year-old alleged accomplice and a 42-year-old woman were nabbed in Coffee Bay.

A Durban man and his alleged accomplices, who were all wanted for the alleged kidnapping and attempted murder of his wife, were arrested in Coffee Bay, in the Eastern Cape, yesterday afternoon.

Prem Balram, the spokesperson for the Reaction Unit South Africa, says reaction officers had travelled 560km and arrested three suspects who were wanted for the kidnapping and strangulation of a woman in Amanzimtoti, Durban, in KZN.

Balram adds the officers followed up on 129 tip-offs between Jozini in the KZN north coast to Umtata in the Eastern Cape since Sunday night and tracked the woman’s 37-year-old husband, a 40-year-old alleged accomplice and a 42-year-old woman to a home in Coffee Bay.
