This unexpected move marks a major step forward in the pursuit of justice for Olorato, whose case has captured national attention and sparked widespread calls for accountability.
According to police officials, Ngubane turned himself in peacefully and is currently in custody as authorities continue their investigation. This follows the earlier arrest of the first suspect connected to the case. The surrender of Ngubane has been welcomed by both law enforcement and members of the public who have closely followed the case.

The case, which has drawn attention for its tragic nature and the delay in apprehending those responsible, is now seeing progress that many believe is long overdue. Community members in KwaMashu and across the country have held vigils and protests, demanding accountability and greater action from authorities.
Police officials have not yet released details of the charges Ngubane may face, but confirm that he is being interrogated and is cooperating with the investigation. Authorities have also indicated that more updates will be shared as the legal process unfolds.
Supporters of Olorato’s family say they feel a renewed sense of hope. “It’s been a long and painful journey, but with every step forward, we believe her voice is being heard,” said one community organizer. “We thank everyone who has stood by us and refused to let this case go cold.”
