Police responding at about 9pm on November 3 found one man dead behind the wheel of a white Toyota Quantum minibus, and another man, aged 44, dead nearby on Ngxalanga Street in Zwelitsha. Police spokesperson Lieutenant Colonel Frederick van Wyk said officers had opened two murder investigations and no arrests had been made. The killings came less than a day after taxi associations CODETA and CATA signed a peace deal.
