FREE STATE. – The verdict in the Wilgehof triple murder case was postponed on Monday in the Bloemfontein High Court to Wednesday.
According to police spokesperson, Lt Col Thabo Covane, the case relates to the deaths of Christo Theron (36), his wife Janine (35), and Janine's mother, Aunty Betsie. Their bodies were found at a crèche in Van Heerdenstraat, Wilgehof, Bloemfontein. Anna Ntsoeu and Ronald Katleho Moroe have been arrested in connection with the murders.
The case was postponed because the prosecutor who represented the two accused at the start of the trial was unavailable. The judge apologised for the inconvenience the postponement caused to the parties and other interested parties.
