A corpse was found at a veld outside the Lawley Informal Settlement on Sunday, September 28. Residents suspect the body was mutilated.
Lenasia SAPS spokesperson, Captain Hector Netshivhodza, said the body sustained serious injuries. The corpse is believed to be female, between the ages of 25 and 30 years.
“The deceased had serious injuries to the left eye and on the ear,” Captain Netshivhodza said.
The woman has not been identified.
Netshivhodza says that once the post-mortem has been performed, the pathologist will determine the cause of death.
He added that when the body was found, the deceased had a mark on their neck. Netshivhodza said it is possible that she was strangled.
Netshivhodza says whoever has information can come forward to the police.
