A year after the disappearance of local prison warder Paseka Sehloho in March 2023, the mystery surrounding his whereabouts has finally been resolved. His lifeless body was discarded in the Mzinyathi River in Osizweni, Northern KwaZulu-Natal.
Sehloho, a prison warder from Ekuseni Correctional Service Centre, vanished on 31 March 2023 and was last seen between 8 am and 12 pm in the Inverness Farm area of Osizweni.
He was expected to appear at the High Court in Durban for a work related case on 5 April 2023 but failed to show up.
Osizweni SAPS Spokesperson, Captain Sipho Nkosi, explained that recent information led to the discovery of Sehloho’s whereabouts, resulting in the arrest of a suspect, the recovery of his vehicle, and confirmation of his fate.
Police reports suggest that Sehloho was killed during a robbery, prompting ongoing investigations. Furthermore, Captain Nkosi stated, “We are still investigating the matter and are still questioning the suspect regarding the details around the crime.”
Despite claims of additional bodies found in the river from an official source, Captain Nkosi refuted this, stating it was untrue.
With the search for Paseka Sehloho now concluded, Newcastillian News extends sincere condolences to his family and friends.
