Seribishane has been formally indicted and is scheduled to appear before the Polokwane-based court from August 4 to August 8, facing a series of serious charges. The charges against Seribishane include murder, domestic violence, unlawful possession of a firearm, and unlawful possession of ammunition. The case stems from the tragic incident on October 23, 2024, at approximately 5 pm, when the 52-year-old nurse was gunned down as she arrived for her shift at Lebowakgomo Hospital. According to Colonel Malesela Ledwaba, the provincial police spokesperson, the victim succumbed to gunshot wounds sustained near the hospital gate. Following the incident, a murder investigation was launched, and the case was transferred to the provincial detectives unit for further scrutiny. The arrest of Seribishane occurred on November 13, 2024, following an intelligence-driven operation in Lebowakgomo Zone A. During the apprehension, law enforcement discovered that Seribishane was in possession of a police firearm and ammunition that had been reported stolen from the Seshego precinct in June 2024. Police also seized a Volkswagen Golf 7, believed to have been used in the commission of the crime. Seribishane opted not to apply for bail during his initial court appearance and has remained in custody since his arrest. The upcoming trial in August will see the prosecution present its case, detailing the alleged brutal murder and the circumstances surrounding the incident. The community awaits the outcome of the trial, seeking justice for the slain nurse. Your email address will not be published.
