Seven Women Killed in Ekurhuleni | Johannesburg News
from Johannesburg News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Seven women have vanished and been found dead in Ekurhuleni, sparking a citywide crisis as authorities race to solve the chilling murders. One victim, 32-year-old mother Itumeleng Kekana, disappeared in Kempton Park on July 17th — her body discovered 17 days later near a river, unrecognizable and partially clothed. Her family is shattered, especially her 14-year-old daughter now living with grandparents, struggling to process the loss of a beloved, humble woman and devoted Orlando Pirates fan. As more bodies surface under similar circumstances, police vow justice will be served, with national leadership prioritizing the cases and the mayor calling it a “crisis point.” While residents cite unsafe neighborhoods, officials stress these aren’t direct causes — but urge community vigilance to help crack the case and stop the killings.
