Bericht
Eine Festnahme im zehnten Fall in Ekurhuleni ist keine Antwort auf alle zehn Todesfälle
Ein Mann wurde am Samstagabend im Zusammenhang mit dem Tod von Ntombifuthu Nxumalo festgenommen. Die Polizei hat ihn nicht mit den Todesfällen der anderen neun untersuchten Frauen in Verbindung gebracht.

Was bedeutet eine Festnahme, wenn die Polizei die Todesfälle von zehn Frauen untersucht? In Ekurhuleni, östlich von Johannesburg, bedeutet sie, dass die Ermittler einen Verdächtigen im Tod von Ntombifuthu Nxumalo haben, deren Leiche am Samstag, dem 26. September, gefunden wurde. Sie bedeutet nicht, dass sie einen Täter gefunden haben, der für alle zehn Todesfälle verantwortlich ist – oder festgestellt haben, dass die Todesfälle auf denselben Täter zurückgehen. Dieser Unterschied ist wichtig für die Familien, die noch immer auf Antworten warten, und für die beiden Frauen, gegen die in einem anderen Fall bereits Anklage erhoben wurde. 13 2 100
Die wichtigsten Fakten
Nxumalos Leiche wurde am Samstagmorgen auf oder neben dem Mooifontein Cemetery im Bereich Vusimusi von Tembisa South gefunden. Der Friedhof und der Ortsteil beschreiben denselben allgemeinen Fundort, auch wenn sich die Berichte darüber unterscheiden, wo genau ihre Leiche lag. Die Polizei fand sie nackt, mit schweren Kopfverletzungen und Steinen um ihren Körper. Sichtbare Stichwunden wurden nicht gemeldet. Die Steine ließen die Möglichkeit aufkommen, dass sie zu Tode gesteinigt worden sein könnte; sie belegen nicht, wie sie starb. In der Polizeierklärung wird ihr Vorname als Ntombifuthu geschrieben, während einige Berichte Ntombifuthi verwenden. 13 24 91
Vorläufigen polizeilichen Ermittlungen zufolge war Nxumalo mit einer Bekannten in einer örtlichen Taverne gewesen, bevor sie mit einem damals noch nicht identifizierten Mann wegging. Anwohner in der Nähe des Friedhofs berichteten, gegen 11 p.m. eine Frau schreien und flehen gehört zu haben; aus den verfügbaren Angaben geht jedoch nicht zuverlässig hervor, in welcher Nacht sie sie hörten. Dieses berichtete Geräusch darf nicht mit der davon getrennten, bestätigten Festnahmezeit von 11 p.m. verwechselt werden. 13 16
Die Ermittler spürten den Verdächtigen von Tembisa bis in das Dorf Mohlabaneng in Limpopo, im Gebiet von Tzaneen, auf. Mit Unterstützung der örtlichen Polizei fanden sie ihn schlafend in seinem Zimmer und nahmen ihn am Samstag, dem 26. September, gegen 11 p.m. ohne gemeldete Zwischenfälle fest. Die Polizei gab die Festnahme am Sonntag bekannt. Die FRANCE-24-Korrespondentin Ununice Masson war davon ausgegangen, dass sie am Sonntag stattgefunden hatte; dem Polizeibericht zufolge erfolgte sie am Samstagabend. 13 90 1
Die amtierende nationale Polizeikommissarin, Lieutenant General Puleng Dimpane, lobte die schnelle Reaktion des Teams. In ihrer Erklärung hieß es außerdem, die Polizei werde die Todesfälle der anderen Frauen weiter untersuchen. Der festgenommene Mann wurde in den bestätigten Berichten nicht öffentlich identifiziert; seine formelle Anklageschrift, sein erster Gerichtstermin und sein Kautionsstatus sind weiterhin unbestätigt. Eine Festnahme im Zusammenhang mit Nxumalos Tod ist keine gerichtliche Feststellung, dass er sie getötet hat. 90 13
Eine Zahl, unterschiedliche Ermittlungen
Die Zahl zehn bezieht sich auf Frauenleichen, deren Fund in Ekurhuleni seit Juli 2026 gemeldet wurde. Bis zum 16. September waren es acht; nach dem Fund von Jabulile Ntimbas Leiche in Villa Liza nahe Dawn Park am 17. September stieg die Zahl auf neun und mit dem Fund von Nxumalo auf zehn. Berichten zufolge wurden Anfang September innerhalb von zehn Tagen sechs Leichen gefunden, doch lässt sich daraus für jede Frau kein verlässliches Funddatum ableiten. Eine fortlaufende Zählung ist hilfreich, um das Ausmaß der Beunruhigung zu zeigen. Für sich genommen kann sie nicht zeigen, wer jemanden getötet hat. 99 147 2
Die Polizei hat auf Ähnlichkeiten zwischen einigen Todesfällen hingewiesen und zugleich erklärt, es gebe keine schlüssigen Beweise dafür, dass dieselbe Person oder dieselben Personen für alle verantwortlich seien. Der Polizeikommissar der Provinz Gauteng, Lieutenant General Tommy Mthombeni, sagte, es sei zu früh, um einen endgültigen Zusammenhang herzustellen. Ein Serientäter ist weder bestätigt noch ausgeschlossen worden. Es gibt keine veröffentlichten Beweise, die den in Limpopo festgenommenen Mann mit einem der neun anderen Todesfälle in Verbindung bringen. 2 38 152
Der Fall Ntimba zeigt, warum die Ermittlungen nicht zu einer einzigen Geschichte zusammengefasst werden können. Fortunate Masilela und Tsakane Nester Msithini erschienen am 21. September vor dem Amtsgericht Boksburg; ihnen werden vorsätzlicher Mord und die Vereitelung der Justiz vorgeworfen. Ihr Verfahren wurde für eine Anhörung zum Antrag auf Kaution auf den 1. Oktober vertagt; keine der beiden Frauen ist verurteilt worden. In einem früheren Bericht war von drei Festnahmen die Rede, doch der zur Befragung festgehaltene Mann wurde ohne Anklage freigelassen. Er ist kein dritter Angeklagter. Die Polizei hat einen möglichen Beziehungsstreit als Ermittlungsansatz im Tod von Ntimba geprüft, nicht als bestätigtes Motiv im Fall Nxumalo oder als Erklärung für die Gesamtzahl. 145 146 166 101
Mitte September setzte die Polizei eine Belohnung von R400,000 aus, als acht Todesfälle untersucht wurden. Sie sollte Hinweise für die umfassenderen Ermittlungen liefern; es handelte sich nicht um eine neue Belohnung, die ausschließlich für den Fall auf dem Friedhof ausgesetzt wurde. Ebenso darf die Aussage, dass in den meisten Fällen noch keine Verdächtigen gefunden worden seien, die bereits im Fall Ntimba erhobenen Anklagen nicht ausblenden. Eine Festnahme im zehnten Fall und Anklagen im neunten lassen diese Fälle weiterhin Gegenstand von Gerichtsverfahren und die übrigen Todesfälle Gegenstand von Ermittlungen sein. 59 100 1
Die noch ausstehenden Antworten
Präsident Cyril Ramaphosa versprach am 24. September, sich innerhalb weniger Tage in einer Ansprache an die Nation zu Maßnahmen gegen geschlechtsspezifische Gewalt und zu den Ermittlungen in Ekurhuleni zu äußern. Am 27. September sprach er auf einer Männertagung über Gewalt gegen Frauen. Bis Sonntagabend hatten die verfügbaren Berichte jedoch weder eine eigens dafür vorgesehene landesweite Ansprache, die sein Versprechen erfüllt hätte, noch einen konkreten Zeitpunkt dafür bestätigt. 27 29
Unbekannt
- Welche Beweise die Festnahme stützen, welche Anklagen folgen werden und ob Todesfälle miteinander in Verbindung stehen.
Als Nächstes
- Ntimbas für den 1. Oktober angesetzte Anhörung zum Antrag auf Kaution sowie ein Bericht über die Beweislage im Fall Nxumalo.
Die schnellste Antwort, die die Polizei geliefert hat, betrifft eine Frau. Die schwierigere Antwort – ob diese Todesfälle über eine bloße Zählung hinaus zu derselben Ermittlung gehören – erfordert Beweise, nicht die Wirkung einer erschreckenden Zahl.
Wie ausgestrahlt 11 Zeilen
- Police arrested a man over Ntombifuthu Nxumalo’s death, the tenth woman’s body found in Ekurhuleni. Ten women’s bodies have been found there since July, but this arrest concerns one death. Families are still awaiting answers in the other cases. Does any evidence connect them, and what has this arrest actually established?
- Nxumalo’s body was found on the morning of Saturday, September 26, at or beside Mooifontein Cemetery in the Vusimusi section of Tembisa South, east of Johannesburg. Those place names describe the same general scene, not two discoveries. Accounts differ on the precise spot within or beside the cemetery. The police statement spells her first name Ntombifuthu; some other accounts use Ntombifuthi.
- She was found naked with serious head injuries and stones around her body. There were no visible stab wounds at the scene. The stones raised the possibility that she had been stoned, but that is an investigative theory, not a confirmed cause of death. Preliminary inquiries placed her at a local tavern with a female acquaintance before she left with a man who had not then been identified.
- Residents near the cemetery reported hearing a woman scream and plead at about eleven at night. The available account does not securely establish which night they heard it. That reported time must not be confused with the time of the arrest.
- Investigators traced a suspect from Tembisa to Mohlabaneng village in Limpopo’s Tzaneen area. With help from local police, the team found him asleep in his room and arrested him without reported incident. The arrest took place at approximately eleven p.m. on Saturday, September 26. It was announced on Sunday—not carried out on Sunday, as an initial account had it.
- Acting national police commissioner Lieutenant General Puleng Dimpane praised the team’s swift response and pledged continued action against murder and gender-based violence. That pledge establishes neither this man’s guilt nor a connection to the other deaths. His name, formal charges, first court date and bail position have not been established. There is no judicial finding of guilt.
- The Ekurhuleni count stood at eight by September 16. Jabulile Ntimba’s body was found in Villa Liza near Dawn Park on September 17, making nine; Nxumalo’s discovery brought it to ten on September 26. Six bodies were reported found over ten days earlier in September, but the available information does not support a date-by-date reconstruction of every case. The count is of women’s bodies discovered since July—not ten murders proved to have one perpetrator.
- Police offered four hundred thousand rand for information in the broader investigation when the count was eight. It was not a new reward issued exclusively for Nxumalo’s case. Investigators have found similarities among some deaths, but no conclusive evidence that the same person or people caused them all. Gauteng police commissioner Lieutenant General Tommy Mthombeni has said it is too early to make a definitive connection. A serial offender has neither been established nor ruled out.
- Ntimba’s case already has a separate court process. Fortunate Masilela and Tsakane Nester Msithini appeared at Boksburg Magistrates’ Court on September 21, facing allegations of premeditated murder and defeating the ends of justice. Their case was postponed to October 1 for a bail hearing; neither has been convicted. An early account counted three arrests, but a man held for questioning was released without charge. He is not a third accused.
- A possible relationship dispute remains a lead in Ntimba’s case, not a proven motive and not an explanation for Nxumalo’s death or the other discoveries. The arrest in the tenth case and the charges in the ninth do not mean there were no earlier arrests; nor do they resolve the remaining investigations. Police have published no evidentiary link between the man arrested in Limpopo and any of the other nine deaths.
- President Cyril Ramaphosa promised on September 24 to address the nation within a few days about measures against gender-based violence and the Ekurhuleni investigations. He spoke about violence against women at a men’s conference on September 27, but by Sunday evening no dedicated national address fulfilling that promise, or definite time for one, had been established. In Nxumalo’s case, the evidence supporting the arrest, the formal court process and any connection to another death remain unestablished.

The complaint centres on the controversial R360 million SAPS Medicare24 Tshwane contract. Although the contract was later cancelled over procurement irregularities, about R48 million had already been paid to the service provider. Public Interest SA argues that, as SAPS Chief Financial Officer at the time, Dimpane had statutory responsibility for financial management, internal controls and risk oversight.

Nxumalo arrived under tight police handling, reportedly entering through the underground parking and being escorted to the courtroom away from public view. He concealed his face with a hood and mask, and avoided cameras throughout the proceedings. Upon noticing journalists in court, he cut short a conversation with his lawyer, Sabelo Mngometulu, and kept his head down until he was called to the dock. After his appearance, he exited through the door leading to the holding cells before returning to the underground parking, where a white police van later collected him. He has been granted bail set at E3 000, on condition that he does not commit a similar offence while out on bail. | Times of Eswatini | Facebook

- #sapsHQ [UPDATE] Two suspects arrested in relation to the #SAPS firearms that were found in their possession will today appear at the Tembisa Magistrate court on a charge of murder of the two police officers and possession of unlicensed firearms. Following the murders of Sergeant Rapetsoa and Constable Montja who were attached to the Ivory Park police station, the SAPS mobilised maximum resources to ensure they find the killers of the two police officers as well as to recover the state issued firearms. Crime intelligence officers and members of the Sedibeng Tactical Response Team (TRT) led the HAWKS to Tembisa and Mamelodi East. In Mamelodi, police recovered one SAPS issued 9mm pistol and an SAPS R5 rifle with several rounds of ammunition. The firearms were positively identified to be those of the SAPS officers who were disarmed off the firearms before being killed in Ivory Park, Johannesburg on Friday evening. #PoliceKillings ME https://t.co/ozQOxXKNfY
