A #StockTheft case has been opened by the police in Motetema under Sekhukhune District involving sixteen goats and thirteen sheep at Tafelkop, Matshelapata village on Monday 08 December 2025 at approximately 22:00.
The livestock owner allegedly locked the kraal and went to sleep, but when he woke up the next day morning, he discovered that it was widely opened.
Upon further investigation, he noticed that the padlock was also damaged and both sheep and goats in different colours and orange tags on the ears were missing inside the kraal.
