A fifth person has been arrested in connection with the high-profile killing of the daughter of South Africa’s former Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) secretary-general Gordrich Gardee.
A police spokesperson said the suspect had been charged with “defeating the ends of justice”.
“We are not going to leave any stone unturned and all the people or all the suspects who have been involved in this particular case are going to be arrested”, Brigadier Selvy Mohlala is quoted as saying in South Africa’s eNCA news website.
The dead body of the politician’s daughter, Hillary Gardee, was found in May in Mpumalanga province.
She went missing a few days earlier, after having gone shopping at a supermarket.
The 28 year old’s death devastated the Gardee family, according to the EFF. They were “distraught and the collective leadership of the EFF at a loss for words”.
Ms Gardee left behind a three-year-old child.
