Outraged witnesses and residents gathered at the home of Ismael du Plessis, where they slammed Delft cops for their shoddy investigation into the culpable homicide case.
A Delft mother is crying for justice for her 10-year-old son after the speeding driver who allegedly killed him was set free due to “lack of evidence”.
The Grade 5 learner died on Friday afternoon after he was hit by a VW Microbus while standing on the pavement in Ambassador Street. Ouma Veronica Adams, 60, says on Monday after the suspect appeared in Bellville Magistrate's Court, the detective visited her and told her the case was withdrawn.“How can there be no evidence when the people chased him and the police caught him? They came here the day after the man was set free to interview the witnesses.
The second witness, Christian Petersen, 43, says despite chasing after the driver and alerting police, officers never took a statement from him.
