Arrests have been made in the infamous Durban woman’s attempted murder case which occurred in Amanzimtoti last month.

The woman (34) is believed to have received death threats not to pursue the case.

She eventually contacted Reaction Unit South Africa (RUSA) last Sunday (April 14).

She informed RUSA of her ordeal, requesting assistance.

The woman claimed that her husband and his accomplices robbed her, took her vehicle and strangled her in an attempt to kill her, then transported her to the Ifafa area where they planned on dumping her body in a sugarcane field.

According to RUSA, when the woman fell unconscious after strangulation, one of the accomplices took her in a vehicle to Ifafa.

It was here that she regained consciousness, jumped out of the moving vehicle, and was subsequently helped by people on the side of the road.

RUSA made the attempted murder case details (provided by the woman) public on its social media pages in the hope of gathering more information to lead them to the people involved.

The public’s involvement in this case resulted in RUSA receiving more than 100 tipoffs.

Reaction officers worked on leads from Sunday evening, which led them to the Umdoni area on Monday (April 15), where the woman’s vehicle was found in a remote rural farmhouse in Umzinto.

The RUSA team was then lead to Coffee Bay in the Eastern Cape, where the team located the woman’s husband and two others, believed to be accomplices.

“They were hiding out at a one-room home on a mountain side,” said Prem Balram, from RUSA.

Officers also recovered the vehicle that was used when transporting the woman to Ifafa.

RUSA said the suspects were detained at Coffee Bay Saps.

An official report from Saps on the attempted murder case is awaited.
