Rob Packham's wife's skull shattered in two places, expert tells court
Markwell said she had received a call from Packham’s daughter asking if she knew where her parents were. She said, initially, she thought they had attended their marriage counselling sessions.
Packham called her afterwards and said Gill had not arrived at a Wynberg high school where she worked as a secretary. She said she had called hospitals to check if there had been any accidents. Markwell said she had invited Packham to her home in Tokai for supper and he had arrived at 7pm and stayed until around 9pm.
She said a friend of Gill’s had arrived later and they had gone to pick up Packham from his Constantia home after they had heard that there was a car on fire at the Diep River railway station. She said they drove to the Diep River police station and then proceeded to the railway station, but could not get close because police had taken over the scene.Galloway asked Markwell if she was aware of the Packhams’ marital problems.
"I know they were going for counselling," said Markwell."They were back together and very happy. The last time I spoke to her ... she said things were good."
