PORT ELIZABETH - 3RD MURDERED FEMALE BODY FOUND WHICH BEGS THE QUESTION... DOES PE HAVE A SERIAL KILLER?

Port Elizabeth police are hunting for a suspect they believe was responsible for killing three women in the Motherwell area since February.

Police spokesperson, Colonel Priscilla Naidu, said the women may have also been raped.

She said the first case was reported in February when the semi-naked body of a 43-year-old woman was found in Unit 8, Motherwell.  She had sustained several stab wounds to the neck.

The second case was recorded on 4 May when the body of a 21-year-old woman was found in bushes on Addo Raod in the Ramaphosa area of Motherwell.

The third victim was found more recently on 6 October when the partially decomposed body of a woman was also found in the Ramaphosa area and not far from where the second body was found in May.

Colonel Naidu said in all the cases it was suspected that the women might have been raped but she said police were still waiting for DNA results.

"Anyone who can assist with any information relating to the murders or a possible suspect is asked to contact D/Sgt Elton Tau at SAPS Ikamvelihle on 082 303 0432. All information is strictly confidential and callers have the right to remain anonymous.
