This follows the arrest of Joseph Modime and Emily Mashaba after they were caught being in possession of a lion's head.

NPA spokesperson, Henry Mamothame, says the Hawks reported that the two suspects were travelling from Tembisa in Johannesburg, seeking a traditional healer to sell the lion’s head for an amount of R350 000.
 
Information further indicated that this sale was intercepted by a police agent who arranged a traditional healer, leading to the arrest of the two at a petrol station in Zeerust, North West. They will appear in the Zeerust Magistrate’s Court.

A lion’s head was found in their possession, wrapped in refuse bags.

Further investigations by the Hawks are underway and the duo will remain in police custody until their next court appearance.
