Pretoria, 20 June 2018: The Minister of Police General Bheki
Cele strongly condemns the killing of 40 year old Comrade
Goodwill Sibusiso Radebe which took place on Tuesday, 19 July
2018 around 19h30 in Roodepoort, Johannesburg west. The motive
of the killing is still unknown at this stage and investigations
are underway.
Preliminary reports have revealed that the deceased was with another
person in a vehicle parked in Carbon Street Lindhaven when two suspects
allegedly approached the vehicle and opened fire, fatally wounding the
deceased, while his companion managed to escape uninjured. Suspects
then reportedly made off in a Ford Fiesta with unknown registration.
“Police investigation has been intensified to ensure that
culprits are brought to book. These brutal and senseless killings
are disturbing and of serious concern to the police leadership
hence all our strategies and operational plans are aimed at
decisively dealing with the scourge of contact crimes” said Minister Cele
Police are appealing to all members of the public to assist with information towards identifying suspects, by reporting to the nearest police station or call our crime stop number 08600 10111.
