Eunice Moloko was killed earlier this month, while on duty at the Leeuwkop Covid-19 isolation site. Her body was discovered on the floor, with her jacket covered with blood.

Marais is expected back in the dock on August 26.

Deputy Minister of Justice and Correctional Services Nkosi Phathekile Holomisa visited the Leeuwkop management area following Moloko’s murder.“Adherence to security procedures is another focal area, which will detail the nature of operations, which led to this catastrophic incident,” he said. Holomisa said it was very sad Moloko was killed in a brutal manner – during the month of August, which is national Women’s Month, where efforts to protect women are heightened.

He said this tragic incident sent shock waves through the department, adding that investigators have done a good job and it was encouraging that a suspect has already been arrested.
