The SA National Defence Force’s report exonerating its soldiers in the death of Alexandra resident Collins Khosa has stunned legal experts, who described it as “unfortunate” and “poorly drafted”.
The soldiers allegedly involved in the incident are not completely off the hook as a criminal case has been transferred to the SAPS Gauteng Provincial Organised Crime Unit for investigation. She said the court had indicated that the investigation was shoddy and that the SANDF now relied on this shoddy investigation, rejecting the version of the Khosa family.
“The report is very poorly drafted,” said Du Plessis. “For instance, in the findings the cause of death is a blunt force head injury, but the pathologist found only a small cut above the left eye, a scratch on the left leg underneath the knee and no other injuries.
