A British man wanted over the deaths of his wife and two daughters in England has appeared before a court in Johannesburg as South Africa begins extradition proceedings.
Forty-five-year-old Ndodana Mkhanyisi Tshuma, a British citizen of Zimbabwean heritage, appeared in the Johannesburg Magistrate's Court on Monday after his arrest last week in a joint operation involving South African police and Interpol.
Tshuma is wanted by British authorities in connection with the deaths of his wife, 42-year-old Nothabo Zandile Tshuma, and their daughters, Natalie, 15, and Nala, 5. The three were found dead at their home near Bedford, north of London, earlier this month.
