Limpopo police seek suspect linked to murder, robbery and attempted murder cases

Limpopo police are appealing to the public for assistance in locating a man wanted in connection with several serious cases, including murder, robbery and attempted murder.

The provincial Murder and Robbery Unit is investigating cases reported in Mogwadi in September 2025, Seshego in April 2026, and a robbery and attempted murder case reported in Seshego in June 2026.

Police are also investigating a murder stemming from an attack at a liquor restaurant in Ga-Chokwe, Moletjie, in the Seshego policing area, on 25 December 2021.

According to police, 33-year-old Kwena Sacra Legodi and his male friend were at the liquor establishment when they were allegedly attacked by a group of armed men. The suspects were reportedly armed with knives, knopkieries and slashers.

Legodi sustained severe injuries and was declared dead at the scene. His friend, who was also injured, managed to escape.

Seven suspects were subsequently arrested in connection with the case and released on bail. Warrants of arrest were later issued for some accused who failed to attend court.

On 12 April 2026, the man who had survived the 2021 attack was allegedly shot and killed at his residence in Ga-Chokwe, Moletjie.

Police are now asking Sipho Sphola Mokwatedi, of Ga-Mabitsela, Moletjie, whose picture was circulated by police, to report to the nearest police station as investigators believe he may be able to assist in resolving the cases.

Anyone with information that could assist the investigation is urged to contact investigating officer Sergeant Noko Mashitisho on 082 565 8463, Crime Stop on 08600 10111, the nearest police station or the MySAPS App.

Police said investigations are continuing.
