The remains of a woman, the victim of a suspected necklacing, have been found in a KwaZulu-Natal south coast sugar cane field by farm workers.
Police are trying to locate the woman's family after her body was found on Monday.
“The burnt body of a female in her 20s was recovered when the workers went to investigate the cause of a fire in the sugar cane fields,” said police spokesperson Const Thenjiswa Ngcobo.
“The deceased was burnt beyond recognition and had wires, suspected to be from a tyre, around her neck. The only clothing that was slightly visible were black takkies and navy blue socks.”
