Another woman's body was found in South Africa's Ekurhuleni municipality, bringing the number of women whose bodies have been discovered there to eight in less than two months. The discoveries have prompted police to intensify their investigation, with a R400,000 (£17,000) reward offered for information that could lead to arrests.

The bodies have been discovered in Kempton Park, Olifantsfontein, Clayville, near Tembisa and KwaThema.
