Cape nurse murdered in his home, 2 suspects arrested

“There were bloody prints from the lounge to the bedroom. My brother was murdered.”

2 suspects have been arrested after the body of a 55-year-old male nurse was found murdered in his home in Nolloth Crescent, Blackheath.

Gregory Paulse, who worked at Mfuleni Clinic, was stabbed with scissors and was found lying face down in a pool of his own blood on his bedroom floor.

Paulse’s younger brother Ricardo, 44, was called to the scene on Wednesday after a neighbor discovered the body.

According to Ricardo, it looks like his brother knew his killers as there were no sign of forced entry, and empty champagne bottles and glasses were found inside.

“They came in, they took advantage of him and he crawled away from them to seek assistance out by the patio door,” he says.

“He never made it. He had a towel pressed to one wound on his side.

“There were bloody prints from the lounge to the bedroom. My brother was murdered.”
