Police put up R100K reward for info on priest's murderer a year later

More than a year after Roman Catholic priest William Banda was murdered in his church, Limpopo police have put up a R100 000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the perpetrator. 'Reports suggest that an unknown male suspect arrived at the [Tzaneen Roman Catholic Church] pretending to be a congregant. He suddenly pulled out a firearm and shot the priest several times,' police spokesperson Colonel Malesela Ledwaba said. At the time, Banda was preparing for a sermon. 'The suspect thereafter fled the scene in a white vehicle without registration numbers.' The man was wearing black pants, a brown shirt, and a waistcoat. He had a clean black haircut and a small goatee. Police released an identikit of him in April. News24 previously reported that Banda was declared dead on arrival at a hospital. Banda was a Zambian national of the St Patrick's Society for Foreign Missions, also known as the Kiltegan Fathers. The incident occurred hours after three Egyptian Coptic monks were killed inside a monastery in Gauteng. The monks were stabbed to death at a church in Cullinan and the assailants left without taking any valuables. Anyone with information leading to the arrest and subsequent conviction of the perpetrator can contact Warrant Officer Shai on 082 465 2996 or Colonel Tinyiko Shilenge on 071 673 1814.

July protest planned after high turnout for ‘No Kings Day' in Denver

DENVER (KDVR) — Colorado groups organizing marches across the state are planning another protest in July following a large turnout in Denver for the nationwide 'No Kings' protest. Denver's protest was one of more than 2,000 gatherings drawing millions of people nationwide. Colorado 50501 organizer Jennifer Bradley tells FOX31 a date and time for the July protest will be announced in the coming weeks. The group is calling for a peaceful gathering that focuses on their message. Demonstrator at Denver 'No Kings' protest details moments before smoke deployed, arrests 'When you only care about your rights, that's exactly when you lose them,' she said. Bradley said 10,000 people were expected to attend the event on Saturday, but the number was far exceeded. While the Denver Police Department says daytime protests and marches sponsored by organizers were peaceful, 35 people were arrested late Saturday night after the protests ended around 4 p.m. Elena Maldonado recorded a video showing smoke being deployed a short time after a group approached Colfax and Interstate 25. Police say some protesters threw rocks at officers as they guarded the entrance to the freeway. A spokesperson says no tear gas was used, but smoke was visible at the protest. 'There were people getting a little bit heated and yelling and stuff, but the other citizens made sure to calm them down. We're here to peacefully protest, we're not here to instigate,' said Maldonado. Bradley tells FOX31 she expects larger crowds for the next protest being planned for July and continues to call for any gathering to remain peaceful and safe. The man suspected of shooting 2 Minnesota lawmakers, killing 1, remains on the loose 'We have to come together as a community, we have to practice peacefulness, non-violence so that everybody has a chance to feel comfortable showing up, everybody has a chance to have their voice heard,' she said. Seventeen people were arrested in a protest Tuesday night. After comparing names, FOX31 did not find any apparent repeat offenders in arrests made Saturday night. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
