KZN man mistaken for serial killer lives in fear

A KwaZulu-Natal man is living in fear after the circulation of a fake social media post labelling him a serial killer.

The real suspect in the Mthwalume murders, who allegedly committed suicide at the weekend, shares his surname.

Siphamandla Khomo shares a surname with the prime suspect in the Mthwalume murders case, in which the bodies of five women were found in a sugar cane field.

Mduduzi Khomo, who was nabbed on Friday, was a petrol attendant.

Siphamandla Khomo doesn’t work there, he is just the owner’s business associate but somehow, these vague links have resulted in a false Facebook post that’s turned his life upside down.

Mduduzi Khomo, meanwhile, allegedly committed suicide while in police custody at the weekend.

Khomo’s worried about his reputation and safety, particularly at a time when emotions are running high over the deaths of the five women since April.

He says he tried to open a case, but he was advised to seek legal assistance instead.
