Cape Town, September 19 ­- The South African murder rate is expected to drop again this year, allegedly to its lowest in a decade. Police Minister Nathi Mthethwa will review the crime statistics for 2011 - 2012 in Parliament on Thursday morning. Compared to 2009 - 2010, murder and attempted murder cases have reportedly decreased by more than six percent. Analysts say this downward trend is in line with other developing countries emerging from a democratic transition.
