South Africa to extradite Zimbabwean Zandile Tshuma to UK over wife, daughters’ murder
The South African authorities have said Zimbabwean Zandile Tshuma accused of killing his wife and two daughters in Bedfordshire, United Kingdom will be extradited to face trial.
South African Justice Minister, Mmamoloko Kubayi, disclosed this in a press conference on Sunday.
The justice minister said, “Mr Tshuma will be extradited to the UK once I have signed all the extradition documents and requests.”
The accused is to appear in court in Johannesburg on Monday, where his extradition to the UK would be decided.

The Zimbabwean fled to South Africa, where he was arrested on Friday by the South African police.
