Cape Town police are baffled by the circumstances surrounding a murder in which two killers walked into a Langa house‚ asked for the woman who lived there‚ shot her and then ran off.
The department of education employee‚ Nolovuyo Monwayo‚ died on her way to hospital.
Captain FC van Wyk said two men approached the home of Nolovuyo Monwayo shortly before 9pm on Wednesday night‚ knocked on the door‚ and were met by one of the children.
"[The] two unknown suspects entered the house and demanded to see Nolovuyo Monwayo‚ who was there with her husband‚" he said.
"One suspect remained in the kitchen and ordered the youths‚ aged six and 16 years‚ to keep quiet whilst the other armed suspect entered the bedroom and fired several shots at Noluvuyo‚" van Wyk said.
Nolovuyo died on her way to hospital‚ but her husband‚ Tladi‚ and two children didn't sustain any injuries. Police said the two killers fled the scene and were still at large.
