TEBOGO Mnisi, the 38-year-old arrested in connection with the murders of two young women in Mamelodi East, Pretoria, made his first appearance in the Mamelodi Magistrate's Court yesterday morning.

Mnisi is charged with the murder of cousins Tshiamo Moramaga, 22, and Baleseng Moramaga, 21. He opted to abandon his application for bail and will remain in custody until January 19, 2026.

The Mamelodi community turned out in numbers to support the grieving family of the two women.

Mnisi faces two counts of murder, attempted murder and possession of unlicenced firearm and ammunition.

The cousins were shot dead in the early hours of Sunday morning. Mnisi was arrested at a petrol station in Pretoria on Monday morning. A third person was also shot during the same incident and is receiving treatment in hospital.
