The Zimbabwean national had been arrested for the murder of Werner Emslie and the attempted killing of his wife.
The couple were sitting outside their house on a farm in Afguns near Lephalale when they were attacked by a four-man gang in September. Two of their attackers were armed.
“[They] shot him to death and further shot his wife … She survived the attack with serious injuries‚” Ngoepe said.
The suspects fled with two guns they found on the property as well as the couple’s vehicle‚ which was found dumped a short distance away.
Moyo was later nabbed in the Free State.
“He was charged with murder‚ house breaking‚ theft and illegal immigration because it was confirmed that he is in the country illegally‚” Ngoepe said.
He is due to appear in court‚ where he will face an additional charge of escaping from police custody.
