Suspected murder-suicide in the outskirts of Serowe

The deceased have been identified as a 23-year-old woman from Sokwe Ward and her 32-year-old boyfriend from Mokwena Ward, both residents of Serowe. According to police, the couple was last seen together on Friday at the man’s home, where they reportedly had a heated argument.

Serowe Police Station commander, Superintendent Poloko Oteng, told The Monitor that the boyfriend had accused his partner of infidelity during their last public appearance. He said the two left for the lands on Saturday morning, but concern grew later in the day when their mobile phones were unreachable.
