Tshepiso Maekisa’s family wants her murderer behind bars. The 32-year-old from Alexandra, east of Joburg, was found dead in the veld in Heidelberg.
Speaking on behalf of the family, Palesa Maekisa (31) told the publication that on 10 January, Tshepiso left her home to meet her baby daddy in Vosloorus with their two-year-old child.
Tshepiso’s friends and family then received WhatsApp messages from her between Monday, 11 January and Friday, 15 January, saying she was on holiday with a friend. “On 16 January, Tshepiso’s mum received a call from an unknown woman saying that she had found her wallet at a mall in Alexandra,” she said.
“That was when the family became suspicious of her whereabouts. They went to file a missing person report.”
Palesa said she went to collect the wallet with Tshepiso’s mum, and they later contacted her car tracking company. Her car was traced to Alberton, Ekurhuleni.
“The police found the car with no sign of Tshepiso or the baby,” she said.
On Sunday, 17 January, the police went to the baby daddy’s house. Palesa said the man told the cops that he was with Tshepiso and the baby from Sunday to Tuesday when they went back to Alexandra.
“The police later summoned him to Alexandra Police Station for further questioning,” she said.
Palesa said after hours of interrogation, the man confessed to killing Tshepiso and told the cops where the baby was.
The baby was found and returned safely to the family.
She said the family was notified on Monday, 18 January, and later went to identify Tshepiso’s body.
“No one saw this coming. The family is heartbroken and we want to make sure he remains in jail,” she said.
Gauteng police spokesman Captain Kay Makhubele said a case of murder was being investigated, and the suspect was due to appear in the Boksburg Magistrates Court today.
