This comes after the police arrested four suspects after the youngest suspect, 17, confessed to having worked with the adults to murder the three people and hide their bodies in shallow graves.
Spokesperson for the police Brigadier Mathapelo Peters said forensic investigators have already come across some bones but would still need to verify forensically the bones are human.
She said the digging started early in the morning and there was no telling how long the police could dig for as they are following a confession to search for the bones of three people, who are said to have been buried at different stages since 2017. The suspects arrested include the mother of the teenager who confessed, her boyfriend, a tenant in the yard, and the boy who struggled to keep the secret.
