“We condemn in the strongest terms possible this horrendous act which has left us cold with shock. No amount of anger justifies this heinous act. The heartless person responsible needs to be permanently removed from society,” said the angered Premier Modise.

The Premier who expressed concern about escalating incidents of gender based violence called for united action against the scourge and for real men to stand up to protect women and children.

“Men who are experiencing pressure should seek counselling and professional help before matters get out of hand to avoid such incidents,” added Modise.

According to police, the 32 year old Zimbabwean national, Samuel Ndlvovu was arrested after allegedly stabling Jenelee van Rooyen on Saturday night.

“The police were called to the scene, where on arrival they found the bodies of the 22-year-old woman and her daughter with blood all over them. The woman was pregnant and her womb was cut to remove the foetus and its throat was slit with a knife. Charges of murder are being investigated,” said Colonel Sabata Mokgwabone.

Ndlovu was remanded in police custody when he appeared briefly in the Lichtenburg Magistrates court on Tuesday. He is expected to appear again in court on January 22.
