South African local resident arrested in death of wife and child discovered by husband and son

On Tuesday, Alfred Manho and his nine-year-old son arrived at their Melkhoutfontein home near Still Bay.
Alfred and his son were first unable to enter the residence because the front door was locked from the inside, according to police spokesperson Captain Malcolm Pojie.
Alfred let his son climb through the window to open the door from the inside.

“They found the 32-year old Annemique Manho lying on the kitchen floor with multiple stab wounds while the lifeless body of the two-year-old Almique Mahno was found in a bath of water.
“Both already succumbed to injuries sustained. An autopsy will be performed on the bodies to determine the possible cause of as well possible time of death,” Pojie said.

Police immediately activated its 72-hour plan in mobilisation of all possible resources and specialised units and experts to comb the scene for clues.
“They worked relentlessly throughout the night, which has led to the breakthrough in apprehending the 32-year-old suspect who is a local resident.”
Pojie said debriefing had been arranged for the bereaved husband and son who made the gruesome discovery of the bodies of their loved ones.

“Investigation is still at a premature stage to divulge more detailed information which might be detrimental to the case. The man will appear in court on Thursday.”
Provincial Commissioner of the Western Cape, Lieutenant General Thembisile Patekile, has expressed his gratitude and admiration towards the dedication of the investigation team that ensured the incarceration of the suspect.
