Die beskuldigde wat van die grumoord op Nadia Lotz aangekla word, het Vrydag (10 Maart) weer in die Strand-landdroshof verskyn en sy borgtogaansoek laat vaar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die nuwe wending beteken dat die beskuldigde, Charles Apollis, wat weens die moord op die ma van sy drie minderjarige kinders in hegtenis geneem is, deur die loop van die moordsaak in aanhouding sal bly. Die saak is vir verdere ondersoek tot Vrydag 14 April uitgestel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apollis se hofverskyning volg nadat hy in verband met die moord op Lotz, wat verlede Saterdagaand (4 Maart) die slagoffer van \u2019n messteekvoorval was, in hegtenis geneem is. Die voorval waartydens die 32-jarige moeder van Temperance Town se keel na bewering afgesny is, spruit glo uit \u2019n stryery wat tussen die oorledene en die moordbeskuldigde ontstaan het (\u201cPa vermoor glo ma van 3,\u201d DistriksPos & Helderberg Gazette<\/em>, 8 Maart). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die paartjie het na bewering \u2019n saamrygeleentheid met die oorledene se vriendin uit die Strand na Gordonsbaai ontvang en was glo op pad huis toe toe hulle in die motor stry gekry het. Die beweerde woordewisseling het glo uiteindelik in die noodlottige mesaanval ontaard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volgens polisie het Strand-polisiebeamptes omstreeks 18:00 op die voorval in Laer Gordonsbaai-weg gereageer. Die verdagte, wat glo agter Lotz gesit het, het na bewering oor die passasiersitplek geleun en haar keel afgesny. Nadat Lotz glo in die ry uit die bewegende motor gestoot is, is die vriendin, wat agter die stuurwiel was, na bewering met die mes gedreig en opdrag gegee om aan te hou ry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lotz is op die toneel dood. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die beskuldigde het hom later by die Gordonsbaai-polisiekantoor oorgegee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Naasbestaandes het verlede week hul skok en smart in lig van die tragiese verlies uitgespreek en ges\u00ea Lotz was \u2019n slagoffer van huishoudelike geweld. Sy en die moordbeskuldigde het saam by haar ma, Diana (63), in Temperance Town gewoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Familielede het Vrydag met plakkate buite die Strand-landdroshof teen die moordbeskuldigde se borgtog betoog. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2019n Petisie wat deur honderde gemeenskapslede van Temperance Town onderteken is, is ook op di\u00e9 dag aan die hof oorhandig. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volgens die gemeenskapsaktivis Heather Mercuur het die petisie teen die vrylating van die moordbeskuldigde, wat verskeie kere al met die gereg gebots het, byna 300 handtekeninge van inwoners in die gemeenskap gewerf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOns is bly dat hy sy borgtogaansoek van die hand gewys het, want hy is \u2019n gevaar vir die gemeenskap en inwoners soek hom nie \u2018buite tralies\u2019 nie,\u201d het Mercuur ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die Strand-polisie het by navraag bevestig dat die beskuldigde al voorheen van verskeie geweldsmisdade aangekla is, maar nooit skuldig bevind is nie. Hy was ook ten tyde die beweerde moord uit op borgtog vir \u2019n poging-tot-moordsaak, waarvoor in die hof was. Die polisie doen beroep op mense met inligting om die polisiekantoor by 021 854 9100 te bel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
