Murder suspect Sibusiso Khumalo, 29, has gone on the run, taking his four-year-old son Manqoba with him.
Police want to question the Zimbabwean about the horror killing of his wife and her sister in Ekurhuleni, South Africa and they are worried about Manqoba's safety.
He disappeared with Manqoba after the bloodied bodies of his wife Nonkondzo Mncube, 23 and her sister Londela Zondi, 17 were found in the family house on Wednesday morning.
Each had been shot twice in the head but baby Phumzile, aged one, was found alive in the bedroom under a pillow.
A neighbour and friend who didn't want to be named told Daily Sun that she heard six gunshots coming from the house on Tuesday evening.
"We called the cops but they never came. The next morning my husband decided to check the house and he fetched the local police to break in," said the friend.
The friend said in 2012 Khumalo was suspended from his job at a security company and Nonkondzo told him he had become a monster and started threatening her and beating her up.
"I saw the bruises," the friend said.
"She reported him to the cops who took away his firearm. I don't know how he got it back," said the friend.
The uncle of the women, Nicholas Mncube, said teenager, Londela, had just come from KZN to study in Gauteng and stay with her sister in January this year.
