Deputy Police Minister Polly Boshielo visited Durban Deep in Roodepoort today following the death of a 14 year old in the area. Likohona Fose's mutilated body was found in an open veld in the community at the weekend, a day after she was reported missing . The police contingent includes the Deputy Police Minister, who will be accompanied by her counterpart in the Women, Youth and Persons with Disabilities ministry. They'll also be joined by the Police's District Commissioner of Johannesburg, Nonhlanhla Khubeka. Just two weeks ago, the commissioner was at the Florida Police Station, not too far from her, promising angry residents swift action in the murder of 11-year-old Jayden Lee Meek. But there's been no arrest in that case. Phemelo speaks to Karinda Jagmohan who visisted the family earlier.
