Police in South Africa have reportedly arrested a 35-year-old man who was hiding at his relative's house in KwaNibela Village after a human skull was found in his yard at Mfekayi Village in Mtubatuba on Monday.
The skull is allegedly that of Tholakele Nsibane (24), who went missing in May 2013. She was last seen on her way to visit a friend near the inyanga's home.
Daily Sun reported that a former employee of the inyanga helped cops find the skull.
"The employee heard the inyanga and his wife arguing about Tholakele's murder," a source told Daily Sun.
"He heard the wife threatening to report the inyanga to the police for killing Tholakele and burying her head. He informed the police, who found the skull buried in the yard."
Major Thulani Zwane said an inyanga was arrested and charged with murder.
"He will appear at the KwaMsane Magistrates Court soon," said Zwane. "Police have started a search for the body."
