Rasuge memorial to be held today | News Article

Pretoria - The memorial service of murdered police constable Francis Rasuge will take place in Hammanskraal, north of Pretoria, on Wednesday.

Deputy Police Minister Maggie Sotyu is expected to make a speech at the service for Rasuge, killed almost eight years ago.

Rasuge went missing on August 27, 2004. She was last seen alive with William Nkuna outside a hairdressing salon in Temba.

Judge Ronald Hendricks sentenced Nkuna, in the Mmabatho Circuit Court sitting in Ga-Rankuwa, to life imprisonment in November 2005, even though her body had not been found.

On March 20, construction workers discovered human bones while laying a foundation at Nkuna's house. Almost a week later, Gauteng police announced that DNA tests proved the remains were Rasuge's.
