The husband was a farm manager outside Groblersdal.“It is also alleged that the deceased's wife attempted to kill him on May 9, 2020 by food poisoning. The victim was admitted at the hospital and later discharged,” Mojapelo said.The wife will appear alongside her co-accused in the Groblersdal magistrate's court on Friday.
They are charged with murder, conspiracy to commit murder, possession of unlicensed firearm and ammunition, attempted murder and defeating the ends of justice.
