The police in Polokwane have yesterday, Monday 1 June 2020, launched a manhunt for an unknown number of suspects who are apparently moving around the farms on the outskirts of Polokwane, slaughtering cattle possibly for their meat.
A total of twelve cattle were found slaughtered on a farm outside Polokwane on Saturday 30 May 2020 and Monday 1 June 2020.
Eight carcasses were found in the early hours of today at around 01:00 on a farm which is situated next to the Silicon road. The suspects were apparently disturbed as they left all the carcasses and instruments they used to dismember the animals.
