Bail application of alleged serial killer postponed

 

The Thohoyandou Magistrate's Court in Limpopo has postponed the bail application of the alleged Thohoyandou serial killer, Ndivhuwo Ntsieni.

Ntsieni (24), a final year BSc student at the University of Venda, is facing 16 counts, which include murder, attempted murder, rape, attempted rape, kidnapping and robbery.

It is alleged that Ntsieni had killed Tshililo Ndou (9), Zwivhuya Mashau (8), Livhuwani Mmbodi  (22) and Ms Brenda Ndovhe (45), an employee of the company contracted to do the cleaning services at the Univen campus.

He appeared in the Thohoyandou Magistrate’s Court last Thursday, but the case was postponed due to the unavailability of his legal representative. The bail application was postponed to 18 December.

Organizations which are active on gender issues, such as the Thohoyandou Victim Empowerment Programme (TVEP), Moral Regeneration Movement and the Far North Network on Family Violence, were among the groups chanting outside the court, demanding that Ntsieni not be granted bail. “We felt that we are no longer safe on the Univen campus and in our isolated areas if murder and rape suspects are granted bail,” said Ms Rosina Mmbi, one of the cleaners and a close friend of the late Brenda Ndovhe.
