South African woman kills six family members to cash in on their life insurance

Rosemary Ndlovu, a 46-year-old policewoman from South Africa, has been found guilty of murdering six people. Between 2012 and 2017, the policewoman had hired hitmen to murder her husband, cousin, sister, niece, nephew and another family member.

R. Ndlovu would provide her family members with life and funeral insurance and then arrange for them to be murdered in order to cash in on their coverage. The death benefit paid by the insurers is worth 1.4 million ZAR (92 820 USD).

In 2018, a hitman had reported her to the police when she was planning the homicide of her mother, sister and children.
