Reading Time: < 1 minute

An Inter-Ministerial Committee of the Security Cluster probing the latest incidents of violence in KwaZulu-Natal, will meet on Monday with police heads and the team investigating murders in Durban.

Police Minister Bheki Cele, Minister of Defence and Military Veterans Nosiviwe Maphisa-Nqakula, Minister of Justice and Correctional Services Michael Masutha and Minister of State Security Dipuo Letsatsi-Duban will meet with them behind closed doors.

Last week, President Cyril Ramaphosa appealed again for an end to political killings in KwaZulu-Natal, after a spate of deaths in the province in recent weeks.

The latest killings claimed the lives of African National Congress Branch Treasurer in the Oshabeni branch Sfiso Cele and the Moses Mabhida regional convener Musawenkosi Maqatha Mchunu.

Both were gunned down at their homes.
