She said the deceased has since been buried with the grave marked “to be exhumed”.

Ms Kanjela thanked members of the public for working tirelessly with the police and assured them that the police were doing everything possible to bring the culprits to book.

Meanwhile, the Police Spokesperson disclosed that following false information that police had apprehended people suspected to have murdered the Taxi driver, some members of the public descended on police officers demanding that the said suspects be handed over to them.
