Martin Stevens, 47, who killed his ex-wife and her lover 15 years ago but was acquitted, has been missing since Wednesday after allegedly stabbing Anna-Marie, 43, outside a Sydenham flat.
Anna-Marie, who has been married to Stevens for six years, is in a Port Elizabeth hospital and, according to a family member, is partially paralysed from the attack.
Police spokeswoman Captain Sandra Janse van Rensburg said Stevens’s picture had been circulated to all police stations in the province.
“It is possible that he has left the Bay which is why we have circulated all the information about him to police stations across the province,” she said.
