PALAPYE: Letlhakane police are investigating a case in which a 36-year-old woman employed by the Department of Meteorological Services was found dead in a pool of blood at her house. Her husband is missing.

According to the Letlhakane station commander, superintendent Michael Maphephu foul play is suspected in the woman’s death. He said that prior to the murder, the deceased was supposed to report for a meeting in the morning at work, which she did not attend, therefore raising her co-workers’ suspicion.

“After seeing that the deceased did not attend the meeting, the co-workers, knowing the deceased as someone who takes her work seriously and wouldn’t miss such an important meeting without any reason, went to check her at the house.
