UK family killing suspect arrested in Johannesburg

South African police said they arrested a UK father in Johannesburg on Friday on suspicion of murdering his wife and two young daughters in England.

Ndodana Mkhanyisi Tshuma, 45, was arrested after an operation involving Interpol, the South African Police Service said.

Tshuma was wanted by authorities in the United Kingdom in connection with the murders of his wife, Zandile Tshuma, 42, and their daughters Natalie, 15, and Nala, five.

Their bodies were found at the family's £1.3 million, or $1.7 million, home in an affluent suburb of Bedford in central England after concerns were raised on Monday.

South African police said Tshuma is a British citizen of Zimbabwean heritage and will appear in court on Monday.
