Crime & Investigation DStv Channel 170

Killer on The Line: Sundays from 19 June at 21:00 CAT

This brand new series examines the murders that were callously planned and premeditated, with emergency calls reporting the crime as an accident. Each episode begins with the recording of the original emergency call, but these calls are not what they seem. What these true crime stories all have in common is one unusual theme – the perpetrators made the phone call to the emergency services themselves. 

This was the starting point of an elaborate web of lies they would concoct to place themselves above suspicion. Each story is unique and set to a backdrop of domesticity, with motives such as money, greed, revenge and jealousy. Sundays from 19 June at 21:00 CAT
