Police said that they were hunting for four men who allegedly went on a criminal frenzy, murdering two women at the Plastic View informal settlement.

Pretoria - Police in Pretoria on Thursday said that they were hunting for four men who allegedly went on a criminal frenzy, murdering two women at the expansive Plastic View informal settlement which mushroomed in the leafy Pretoria East suburb of Garsfontein.

"The gruesome murder has left the South African Police Service and the community of Plastic View devastated. It is alleged a group of four males, who are unknown, arrived at the shebeen to buy beers. On the premises there were three ladies -- the owner and two ladies who work in the shebeen," said Selepe.

Selepe said the criminals went on to rape one of the shebeen workers and then took her away from the premises on foot. She said on Thursday morning, the body of the kidnapped woman, who was aged 38, was discovered by some members of the Plastic View community.
