Thursday, March 4, was a dark day for Cape Town. Three women were murdered in the city on the same day, just hours apart, as gender-based violence continues.
The first murder scene was at Disa Crescent, Sanddrift, Milnerton where the body of a 70-year-old woman, identified as Schanette Willemse, was discovered inside her bathtub just after 8am.
Her car and her dog were missing from the scene.
The murder has spread fear and shock across the close-knit community where Willemse was a shopowner and money lender.
