VIDEO: Charges withdrawn against Booysen, Cato Manor 'death squad' members

Durban – A seven-year legal battle ended abruptly in the Durban High Court on Wednesday morning as all of the charges against former KwaZulu-Natal Hawks' boss Johan Booysen and members of the Cato Manor special investigating unit were withdrawn.

Pillay ordered the charges be withdrawn and also ordered that Booysen finally be allowed to retrieve his passport, a request made by his long-time legal representative, Carl van der Merwe. The paper has since said the allegations in the articles were not thoroughly substantiated and apologised.
