A KwaZulu-Natal man who had been on the run for seven years after he was released on bail while on murder charges have been rearrested by the police.
Sifiso Nxumalo, appeared before the Nquthu magistrate’s court on Monday on two murder charges dating back to 2013.
The 31- year- old was arrested in connection to the murder of Mavela Ncube who was stabbed at a tavern in Mondlo, in northern KZN.
While he was released on bail, Nxumalo allegedly stabbed another person, Ali Narsill, at a shop in the same area before he fled the province.
“The information was received that he was seen in Gauteng, where he was hiding. He was arrested on October 17 with the assistance of Ivory Park police officers.”
“He was brought to Mondlo SAPS for detention,” said police spokesperson Col Thembeka Mbele.
He will return to court on October 28 for bail application.
