A shocking discovery in the Samora Machel community of Philippi, Cape Town, has resulted in the arrest of Zimbabwean national Brian Miripiri, accused of murdering his 56-year-old girlfriend, Busisiwe Mthethwa.

Mthethwa’s dismembered body was found in a chest freezer at their shared home, leading to Miripiri’s arrest.

Miripiri, who spent a night with another woman after the alleged murder, claimed Mthethwa had traveled to the Eastern Cape.

Inconsistencies in his statements and suspicious behavior raised concerns, prompting family members to alert the police.

Miripiri faces murder charges, and the community is determined to seek justice for Mthethwa.
