Red is the colour of love- and the colour of blood.
A police officer from Ga-Nala was found behind a locked door lying in a pool of his own blood in the early hours of Monday, February 12. In another corner of the yard, lay another police officer, deceased, with one gunshot wound.
It is still unclear what led to this horrific incident and a colleague of the two deceased officers could not anticipate what he would find when he received a call to the scene.

It is reported that there were 11 live rounds in the magazine of the pistol with two projectiles and four cartridge cases retrieved from the scene. The constable attending the scene asked the landlord for the whereabouts of Capt Manelisi Samuel Nkosi (48) who resides at the scene of the crime. In a locked room, lay Capt Nkosi reportedly in a pool of blood on the floor with three gunshot wounds to his right shoulder and chest.
