Three men who brutally murdered a University of Fort Hare (UFH) couple in Hogsback two years ago have received hefty sentences for their crimes.
The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) said the High Court of South Africa, sitting in Makhanda in the Eastern Cape, jailed Silindokuhle Mangali, 22, Sakhele Limba, 34, and Wanda Limba, 30, to seven life imprisonment terms.
They were convicted for the murder of renowned academic couple Judith Masters, 67, and Fabien Genin, 51.
The couple was attacked in their home on September 30, 2022.
Explaining the merits of the case, NPA spokesperson Luxolo Tyali said the accused broke into the couples home.
