In imposing an 18-year sentence on Pieter Doorewaard and 23-year sentence on Phillip Schutte, North West High Court Judge Ronnie Hendricks said the murder was not planned and not premeditated.Doorewaard and Schutte were found guilty of murder, kidnapping, intimidation, theft, and pointing a firearm in November 2018.The men, however, claimed that he jumped from a vehicle while they were on their way to the police station with him after they caught him stealing sunflower heads at a farm.
Moshoeu's death sparked protests in the area and several houses and businesses were burnt to the ground. Some residents claimed he was killed because he was black.
And real murderers become mp's. Amazing country we live in.
It’s cold 🥶 in there....I hope they are having sleepless nights
Killed a young man for a handful of sunflower
If they where black and the victim white, they would be free based on the witness back tracking BlackPriviledge
The refusal is based on view that no other court could conceivably reach a different conclusion. That's the test. Given the discrepancies & also talk of the mental condition of the single witness, it's a rather strange view to take. But I believe popular pressure is immense.
I’m sure their defense expected this outcome. No surprise here.
Ditaba tse monate!
Good.... Let them rot in jail
Attention afriforum LOL
