The Department of Correctional Services (DCS) has internally charged Rosemary Ndlovu with violating the Correctional Services Act after she was caught with a mobile phone.
Inmates found in possession of cell phones are charged under Section 23(1) of the Correctional Services Act of 111 of 1998. They are then reprimanded accordingly, a process that may involve the withdrawal of privileges for a specified period, reclassification, and punitive measures.
“Illegal activities and deviant behaviour by inmates have no place in correctional facilities. DCS is working towards achieving contraband-free centers; hence, different measures are being employed by means of removing illegal items from our centers.”
Rosemary Ndlovu was sentenced in 2021 for orchestrating the murder of her close relatives and lover to benefit from life insurance policies to the value of over R1.4 million.
Ndlovu organized the murder of her cousin, Witness Madala Homu; her sister, Audrey Ndlovu; her niece, Zanele Motha; her nephew, Brilliant Mashego; another relative, Mayeni Mashego; and her lover, Maurice Mabasa.
The series of murders began in 2012 and continued until 2018 when she was arrested.
