JOHANNESBURG - It's going to be a black Christmas for the family of a woman who was kidnapped and shot dead in Pretoria.
The 29-year-old was abducted at her beauty salon in the Alexandra township last week.
He body was recovered near the Mabopane highway.
Police have since arrested three Somali men who were found in possession of her car on Thursday last week.
The woman's brother Meshack said the family is now making plans to bury her.
“For now we’re planning her burial. We have to go and visit the bank and check if any of her money was taken.”
Meanwhile police are searching for a fourth suspect believed to have masterminded the woman's kidnapping and murder.
The police's Ann Poortman said the three who are in police custody are due to appear in the Pretoria Magistrate's Court.
“The case is being investigated. If anyone has any information on this case, we urge them to come forward.”
