Sixth suspect arrested in Jansenville farm murder


 A sixth suspect has been arrested in connection with the murder of 70-year-old Jansenville farmer Owen Charles.

The 22-year-old man was arrested at Kamesh, Uitenhage on Thursday night.

He had been on the run since Monday when his alleged accomplices were caught in Knysna following a high speed chase with police.

Police spokesperson, Captian Vikus van Eeden, says the suspect will appear in court in Jansenville on Monday.

Two other suspects are appearing in court on Friday.

Another two teenagers and a 22 year old girl are under police guard in hospital at Knysna after being injured when they crashed Charles' stolen bakkie.
