Durban Community Stunned as Metro Cop Arrested in Tragic Incident

In a shocking turn of events, the Durban community was left reeling as news surfaced of a 27-year-old Durban Metro Police officer allegedly involved in the fatal stabbing of his girlfriend, who was also a member of law enforcement.

The incident occurred within the confines of a flat nestled on Joseph Nduli Street in Durban, unfolding tragically on a Sunday.

According to statements provided by Police spokesperson Colonel Robert Netshiunda, the suspect purportedly not only carried out the heinous act but also recorded the harrowing moments of his girlfriend’s passing.
