Hawks nab two for chief whip Nobhongoza’s murder

Two men aged 34 and 45 have been arrested for the murder of the ANC chief whip in Sakhisizwe Municipality Thanduxolo Nobhongoza, 42.
The two, who may not be named before appearing in court, were arrested on Saturday at their respective homes in Tsolo and Khowa [formerly Elliot] on Saturday by the Hawks’ Komani serious organised crime investigation unit.
Nobongoza was shot dead on Thursday afternoon in Cala.
Provincial Hawks spokesperson Captain Anelisa Feni said the two will appear at Cala magistrate’s court on Monday on a charge of murder.“Further charges cannot be ruled out,” she said.
Feni said the Hawks were assisted by the provincial crime intelligence, provincial detectives, SAPS organised crime unit, tactical response team and public order policing who worked “around the clock, following up on leads and led to the arrest of the two suspects”.
