A Zimbabwean man, Andrew Ndlovu (30), who has been on the run since the r_ape and murder of his female employer, Christine Robinson, was arrested in South Africa after a Facebook trap by the victim’s niece , Lehanne Sergison, who is based in the UK.
Nldovu killed and robbed Robinson on 31 July 2014 at a farm in Thabazimbi, Limpopo and disappeared to Zimbabwe.
Lehanne set up a fake facebook account under the name Missy Falco and developed a relationship with Andrew on his Facebook account.
In June 2019, Missy Falco planned to meet with Ndlovu and set a trap with police. However, Ndlovu never showed up to the meeting venue.
On 30 July 2020, Lehanne posted a message on Facebook, and attached Andrew’s pictures. The message read:
“Six years ago, this man r_aped and murdered my aunt Christine Robinson. Andrew Ndlovu is still a free man enjoying his life after taking hers.”
Lehanne received a response to her post from a woman in Gauteng who had seen the post.
The woman told Elaine that Ndlovu was working for her father in Crosby for the past 4 years and she knew where he lived.
Ndlovu was arrested on the 13th of August and the following message was posted on Facebook.
#FarmAttack Feedback: Today the suspect we arrested 2 weeks ago, on 30 July 2020, for the alleged rape & murder of British national Christine Robinson (then 59) on 30 July ’14, appeared in court in Thabazimbi, Limpopo. It was also confirmed that he is in #SouthAfrica illegally and the case was postponed until 29 October while he stays in custody.
Thanks again to Sakkie Louwrens from BMO, the group of senior reservists from Garsfontein SAPS and of course the very brave Lehanne Sergison who assisted with the operation in Johannesburg to arrest this man after 6 years of misery for the Robinson family.
