The Provincial Organised Crime Unit in the Eastern Cape has arrested three suspects in connection with a double murder that rocked the quiet town of Hogsback two months ago.
The bodies of 66-year-old Judith Masters and her 50-year-old partner Fabian Genin were found in their Hogsback home on the 3rd of October with their hands and feet bound with cable ties.
They also had no visible injuries.
Masters and Genin were both former lecturers at the University of Fort Hare and had only recently retired.
Warrant Officer Majola Nkohli told Algoa FM News that following an intensive investigation by the organised crime unit two suspects were arrested on Tuesday this week, while the third suspect was nabbed on Wednesday.
Algoa FM News understands that the suspects are not from Hogsback but from the villages in the valley.
Warrant Office Nkohli confirmed that the three-man are between the ages of 23 and 33 and will appear in court on Friday on a charge of murder.
