Worried about her mother’s whereabouts, Chihota Nyarai’s daughter was among the concerned relatives who came forward after hearing that six bodies had been found at a Johannesburg factory in October 2022.
A room in which a sex worker's body was discovered at Sifiso Mkhwanazi's father’s workshop was used as a “slaughterhouse” to kill sex workers between April and October 2022.
Only three of six sex worker bodies have been identified in the trial of then 21-year-old Sifiso Mkhwanazi, who allegedly confessed to killing the six women.
The woman who opened the rape case against Sifiso Mkhwnanazi which allegedly triggered him to kill sex workers could not be traced when police started their investigation after the discovery of six bodies.
