# Free State MEC for Social Development, Mathabo Hlalele, has strongly condemned the brutal murders of two women aged 35 and 25 in Theunissen. Their bodies were discovered in separate abandoned buildings over the past weekend. One of the women sustained multiple stab wounds. The motive for the murders remains unclear at this stage, and no arrests have been made yet. The department’s spokesperson, Thembile Nqabeni, has described the killings as a painful reflection of the unfinished struggle for women’s emancipation:
