A Limpopo man arrested for the murd3r of his sister and her baby is due to appear in the Phalaborwa magistrate’s court on Thursday.
He was remanded after his first appearance on Monday.
Last week Friday Kagiso Thabang Terry Thubane allegedly st@bbed his 31-year-old sister and her one-month-old baby with a sh@rp instrument at their residence in Nelgra section. He allegedly then locked the doors and fled the scene, police spokesperson Brig Hlulani Mashaba said.
