Two more arrests made in Gardee case

TWO more arrests have been made in connection with the Hillary Gardee murder case.

The daughter of the EFF’s former secretary-general, Godrich Gardee, was found murdered last Monday three days after she went missing in Mbombela, Mpumalanga.

Mpumalanga police spokesperson Colonel Donald Mdhluli has confirmed that a further two suspects have been arrested bringing the total number of arrests to three.

This comes after the two men were apprehended in Nelspruit between Saturday night and the early hours of yesterday morning.

The two are to join the 39-year-old suspect who was arrested on Friday, May 6 in Schoemansdal.

The provincial commissioner of the SAPS in Mpumalanga Lieutenant-General Semakaleng Manamela said: “This is encouraging and as we indicated that there were other people of interest that we were following and interviewing.”
