Western Cape police have offered rewards ranging from R50,000 to R100,000 to assist in apprehending the perpetrators of three separate crimes. Kar Hao Teoh, 40, a British trauma and orthopaedic doctor, took a wrong turn into Nyanga, a township notorious for crime, while on holiday with his family. He was with his wife Sara and two-year-old son Hugo when he was killed on August 3, 2023, after travelling from Hermanus to Cape Town International Airport. His GPS rerouted them into Nyanga as the N2 was blocked due to a taxi strike.
