damn, they should make a movie out of this guy
Local reports claim Joseph Ntshongwana, 34, carried out the attacks in revenge for the gang rape of his daughter that left her infected with HIV.
Police said one of the alleged victims was decapitated, with his head found in a dustbin a mile away. Another victim's head "was left hanging by a thread".
Ntshongwana is a former flanker for top-flight side Blue Bulls, based in Pretoria.
It is reported that the girl was assaulted during a break-in at the family's home in Durban. Ntshongwana is accused of then stalking his victims over several days in nearby townships and slums before attacking them.
Detectives arrested him at 1.30am on Wednesday.
Police spokesman Vincent Mdunge said Ntshongwana was expected to appear in court to face three charges of murder and one of attempted murder after a fourth alleged victim managed to escape.
He added: "They found clothes with blood stains and a hire car he may have used during the alleged attacks."
According to The Telegraph, the suspect allegedly told a group of witnesses he would "kill 100 men if he could".
The paper quotes a police source, who said: "He didn't seem to make any effort to try and conceal himself. He was just driving around the townships in a car, then he would get out and attack someone.
"It was almost like he wanted to wipe out all the men from one particular area of the township."
Police cannot confirm that his daughter was raped, saying this will be investigated at a later date.
Ntshongwana has been remanded in police custody and is due back in court on 7 April for a bail hearing.
