The investigating team has linked the man, who was Boitumelo’s estranged husband, to her murder.
A man suspected of killing 23-year-old Boitumelo Gift Mashita in Thembisa has been found dead in Midrand, South Africa. The victim's estranged husband, who was initially identified as a person of interest, was discovered inside his vehicle in Midrand's policing precinct. Police believe he may have consumed an unknown substance, though foul play is not suspected at this time.
A post-mortem examination will be conducted to confirm the cause of death. Boitumelo's uncle stated that the murder was likely not a robbery, as they had tracked her movements and found her estranged husband missing from his home.
