Ndodana Tshuma sought over wife and daughters' deaths

UK police launched an international manhunt Wednesday for Ndodana Mkhanyisi Tshuma, also known as Mark, after his wife and two young daughters were found dead at the family home in Bedford, central England.

Police said Tshuma, 45, is suspected of murdering his wife, Zandile Tshuma, 42, and daughters Natalie, 15, and Nala, five. Their bodies were found at the family's home after concerns were raised on Monday.

Detective Lee Martin said Tshuma, a British citizen of Zimbabwean heritage, was believed to have left Britain from London Heathrow Airport on a British passport on Saturday and was now believed to be in Zimbabwe.

Martin urged Tshuma to hand himself in and said police were working with national and international agencies to track him down.

Media reports, citing Companies House records, said Tshuma ran a property business, Nexus Trove Holdings, from his home.
