COPS OFFER R100K REWARD

WESTERN Cape police are on the hunt for murder suspects and offering up to R100 000 for information leading to the arrest of the fugitives.

In posts yesterday, cops notified the public that they are pursuing an alleged taxi hitman Vuyo Tshukela, aka Yeso, who has been linked to several murders.

With taxi and gang tensions on the rise innie Kaap, a warrant for Yeso’s arrest has also been issued by the court.

Police spokesman Lieutenant-Colonel Malcolm Pojie says: “The suspect who is on the run has been positively linked to at least four taxi-related murders which were perpetrated in Philippi East and Nyanga during August 2024, and murders in Nyanga and Delft during September 2024.”
