'Humansdorp hitman' wanted by SAPS


Humansdorp police have released an identity kit of a man believed to be linked to a murder hit.

Police spokesperson, Captain Gerda Swart, said the suspect was between 25 and 30 years of age and approximately 1.60m tall.

She said he was wanted in connection with cases of robbery and murder that occurred during December last year in Vergenoeg, Kwanomzamo, in Humansdorp.

It was alleged that residents were sitting in the lounge of a house when there was a knock on the door.  When the door was opened, two men armed with firearms entered the house, threatened the occupants and demanded cash.

A wedding ring and R200 was handed over to the suspects.

Swart said the men then asked where "Cookie"- known as Vuyolwethu Matodlana - was. The suspects were directed to the bedroom where the 36-year-old was sleeping and fired several shots killing her instantly.

The motive for the killing was still not clear.

Anyone with information about the case or the whereabouts of the suspects is urged to contact Humansdorp detectives.
