Police are investigating after the body of another woman was found on the East Rand on Tuesday morning.
The woman’s remains were discovered near a church along Sekhukhuni Street in Kwa-Thema, Springs.
The latest discovery means six women’s bodies have been found in the area in recent months.
Investigators are now examining possible links between the cases amid concerns that a serial killer, or more than one killer, may be behind the deaths.
The development comes a day after the family of missing runner Elizabeth “Tsontso” Moselakgomo confirmed her identity.
Moselakgomo’s remains were found in Kempton Park over the weekend, following her disappearance.
