Wanted man slips through the cracks
Wanted man slips through the cracks – again The fugitive wanted in connection with the disappearance of Sodwana Bay skipper John 'Matambu' Dercksen was reportedly apprehended for shoplifting – and let go after a court hearing. According to reports, the theft and subsequent arrest of Tomas Frederik 'Ferdie' Visser occurred in the Heidedal area of Bloemfontein on 17 March – one year and one day after Dercksen disappeared without trace. ALSO READ: R100k reward to catch fugitive linked to missing Sodwana skipper His hearing was held on 18 March; the charge was withdrawn and he was released. 'It was R151 for two packets of smoked Viennas and a tin of beans, so they didn't run his ID number, thinking it was just a petty theft,' said Cherie Eilertsen, Dercksen's sister. 'I'm encouraged that we now know where he is… And he's got to surface every two to three days to steal something to eat. 'I'm not focusing on the fact that they released him because there's a lot of good that's come from this; he's living rough, nobody's helping him, he's having to steal. 'We now need to bring him in.' Visser has been wanted in connection with Dercksen's disappearance in March last year. He was apprehended in Mozambique five days after Dercksen went missing, presumed murdered, but 'botched' extradition proceedings saw charges against him withdrawn. Although he was sent back to prison to see out the remainder of a previous sentence for which he had been parolled – and broken parole conditions – Visser managed to escape – while doing community service – from the Tonga Community Correction office in Mpumalanga at which he was being held. He has been on the run since, but a warrant of his arrest was issued earlier this year in connection with a sexual assault case in Nelspruit. An anonymous angler earlier this year posted a R100 000 reward for information leading to Visser's arrest. Don't have the ZO app?

Khutsong kidnapping shocks community during ongoing power outages
A 22-year-old man from Khutsong Extension 5 was kidnapped during a terrifying house robbery on the evening of Friday, July 12, adding to growing concerns about violent crime in the area. The incident unfolded around 19:00 in the 70s section of Khutsong Ext 5, where a group of young people were gathered around a fire outside a home. With Welverdiend and surrounding areas continuing to experience prolonged power outages, the group had resorted to using the fire to keep warm. According to witnesses, four unknown men, speaking Sesotho, approached and asked to buy eggs. When told there were none, they questioned a 20-year-old woman, asking if she was 'the woman of the house.' After she responded that their parents were not home, the situation escalated dramatically. The suspects drew firearms and forced the group to the back of the house. They demanded money and forced the woman's brother to open a household safe. The armed robbers stole cash, several cellphones, electronic equipment, and alcohol—before kidnapping the young man as they fled the scene. The victim's mother received a phone call from the kidnappers the following morning. The suspects demanded ransom money for her son's release. Local police have opened a case of house robbery and kidnapping. No arrests have been made at the time of publication. A senior officer involved in the investigation urged residents to install GPS tracking apps on family members' phones as a preventative measure. 'This can help us locate missing persons or kidnapping victims much faster, especially in cases where time is critical,' he said. The incident has left many residents feeling unsafe, particularly with the current lack of electricity and increased vulnerability during the night. Anyone with information is urged to contact the Khutsong police station or report anonymously via the SAPS Crime Stop line at 08600 10111.

Convicted serial killer, ex-cop in court for alleged murder plot
Convicted serial killer and former police officer Nomia Rosemary Ndlovu appeared in the Kempton Park Regional Court this morning alongside her former colleague Nomsa Mudau on charges of conspiracy to commit murder. Kempton Express reports the case was postponed to October 1 after representation did not arrive for the hearing. On June 5, the case against the two former police officers was also postponed for a Section 174 application. Ndlovu, formerly stationed at the Tembisa Police Station, and Mudau, who served at the Norkem Park Police Station, are accused of conspiring to kill Mudau's ex-husband, Justice Mudau. It is alleged Mudau promised to pay the hitmen using proceeds from a life insurance policy she had taken out in her ex-husband's name. However, instead of carrying out the killing, the hitmen tipped him off. Ndlovu was sentenced in 2021 to six life terms in prison for the murders of five of her relatives and her partner.
