Residents apprehended a man on Wednesday afternoon who was allegedly burning human body parts. He apparently revealed where he had buried Mabandla.
Police confirmed that Mabandlas remains, with some body parts missing, were found.

Mdluli says, "He is apprehended under police guard and we were also informed of the two incidents where Junior Mabandla's remains were found at that graveyard. In the early hours of this morning, the remains were taken, and the family confirmed the clothes he was wearing. The other three-year-old who went missing yesterday, today her body will be exhumed."
