Bloemfontein - The three suspects arrested in Bloemfontein last night in connection with a murder in Exton Road, Navalsig, are expected to appear in court later this week.
Police spokesperson Peter Kareli says police are still searching the premises where the three suspects, two of whom are aged 21 and one 25, were arrested. Officers yesterday found a bloodied garden spade and a knife but are today searching for another knife and more weapons.
The 25-year-old victim was killed at a construction site on Saturday and his bruised body was discovered with multiple stab wounds in a shallow grave on Sunday.
The suspects are expected to appear in court either tomorrow or Friday.
