The Tlokweng suitcase murder mystery case remains unsolved as forensic lab results delay the case. Mid-January, Tlokweng police identified the prime suspect’s remains in the brutal murder of Cecilia July, 33, who was discovered dumped in the bushy outskirts of Tlokweng village on November 6, 2017 but to date the case remains unsolved.

Asked about the DNA results that were found on the 15 male used condoms that were discovered dumped with July’s body, Tlokweng Police Station commander, superintendent Robson Maleka told The Monitor that they were still awaiting DNA results to confirm whether the DNA on the used condoms belonged to the prime suspect or not.

Ever since the incident, there has been speculation that since 15 male used condoms were recovered, July might have been gang-raped, but police are still not in a position to comment further as they are still waiting for forensic results to match recovered samples with the DNA of Mopati Tebejana, 28.
