George Peters, oftewel Barney, vermeende berugte leier van die Hollander-bende in Kimberley en Kuruman, het Woensdag 11 Maart vir adv. Vasiliki Patrinos, sy regsverteenwoordiger van Regshulp Suid-Afrika <\/a>in die pad gesteek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hiermee is sy wens vervul om homself te verdedig sodat hy \u201cvrae aan die getuies kan stel soos hy wil\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

S\u00f3 het hy aan regter Alm\u00e9 Stanton ges\u00ea in die verhoor wat al etlike kere vertraag is weens Peters se nukke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Peters en sy 15 medebeskuldigdes word gesamentlik of afsonderlik verdink dat hulle by etlike bendeverwante voorvalle vanaf Augustus 2020 tot Februarie 2023 in Kimberley en Kuruman betrokke was. Hulle het glo geld uit dwelmhandel gemaak en die vroue is glo as dwelmmuile gebruik. Die 117 aanklagte sluit onder meer moord, poging tot moord, bedrog, ontvoering, verkragting en geldwassery in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Voorheen verwyder weens ‘dwarstrekkerige gedrag’<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Hy is voorheen uit die verhoor verwyder weens sy dwarstrekkerige gedrag en dreigement dat die verhoor nie sal voortgaan voordat hy nie sommige van sy meer as 30 kinders gesien het nie. Soos vroe\u00ebr in die deelsverhoor wat vir drie weke geskeduleer is, is nog \u0149 brief met sy besware waarin hy sy onskuld voorhou aan die hof voorgelees. Hy weier om na \u201cleuens wat die getuies vertel, te luister\u201d en is nie \u201clus vir hofprosedures nie\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Patrinos het aangevoer dat Peters al lank in aanhouding is, gemoedskommelings ervaar en impulsief is. Hy is glo bekommerd oor sy kinders wat deur \u2019n vorige vrou \u201cverkoop\u201d word, en sy kinders gaan glo nie skool nie. Peters verlang \u0149 regverdige verhoor. Hy en sy respekteer mekaar, al wil hy haar afdank, omdat sy nie vrae stel soos hy dit wil h\u00ea nie. Peters is glo ernstig siek en ervaar \u201cpyn en lyding\u201d waar hy in die beskuldigdebank sit<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Demeon Hannie is die staatgetuie wat in die getuiebank is en kruisondervra word. Hy het volgens Peters se beswaarskrif getuig hoe hy hom (Peters) wou doodskiet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vertragings in hof benadeel ander<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Die staat en die ander beskuldigdes se regsverteenwoordigers het in hul beto\u00eb aangevoer die vertragings benadeel hul kli\u00ebnte van wie sommige al vir jare in aanhouding is. Hulle het ook \u0149 reg dat geregtigheid spoedig geskied. Hulle het almal aangevoer dat Peters se wens vervul moet word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sy mede-aangeklaagdes is Britney Arends, Stephanie Mcanda, Simone Rose, Chinaaz Mentoor, Abagail van Wyk, Chane Adams, Micheal Peters, Clive Peters, Deon May, Parmeston Mentoor, Henry Blom, Vincent Rosen, Tshepo Malambi, Nico Hofuza en Shawn Smith. Van hulle is Peters se broers, eertydse en huidige houvroue en vermeende makkers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Roelof van Van Wyk het namens sy kli\u00ebnt aangevoer Peters minag die Suid-Afrikaanse regstelsel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adv. Jaques Rosenberg, aanklaer, het aangevoer die regter het reeds agteroor vir Peters gebuig. Peters se optrede veroorsaak ernstige vertragings in \u0149 ingewikkelde saak. Patrinos is die tweede regsverteenwoordiger wat Peters afdank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has a long-standing history of serving the community with news and information pertinent to the region. The newspaper, distributed in the capital and more than 20 towns, is also read online in other parts of the vast province, and has been an important source of information for residents of the Northern Cape. The publication is geared towards Afrikaans and English-speaking readers, with the content reflecting the cultural diversity of the province. Like the other regional newspapers in South Africa, NoordkaapBulletin has had to adapt to changing media landscapes, including the rise of digital news platforms. However, it remains a significant part of the media landscape in the Northern Cape, helping to keep communities informed and connected.","email":"noordkaapbulletin@novusmedia.co.za","telephone":"+27514047600","legalName":"Novus Media (Pty) Ltd","foundingDate":"2025-01-01","vatID":"4100318916","taxID":"2000\/018234\/07","numberOfEmployees":{"@type":"QuantitativeValue","minValue":"51","maxValue":"200"}},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/#\/schema\/person\/e08d7630612634c4a5ced5db09b6608f","name":"Noordkaap Bulletin","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-ZA","@id":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a99daa5b340dd77d269e8375259ff19cc6329797ffcecb12b900fcfff3ce0bea?s=96&d=mm&r=g","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a99daa5b340dd77d269e8375259ff19cc6329797ffcecb12b900fcfff3ce0bea?s=96&d=mm&r=g","contentUrl":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a99daa5b340dd77d269e8375259ff19cc6329797ffcecb12b900fcfff3ce0bea?s=96&d=mm&r=g","caption":"Noordkaap Bulletin"},"url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/author\/noordkaapbulletin\/"}]}},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/127715_61198.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":298172,"url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/barney-wil-beste-getuies-kruisondervra\/","url_meta":{"origin":297653,"position":0},"title":"‘Barney’ soek staat se ‘grootste getuies’ om vrae aan hulle te stel ‘soos hy wil’","author":"Noordkaap Bulletin","date":"20 March 2026","format":false,"excerpt":"George Peters (Barney), vermeende leier van die Hollanders-bende, het die staatsaanklaer uitgedaag \u201com sy beste getuies\u201d in die getuiebank te sit sodat hy (Peters) hulle onder kruisondervraging kan neem.","rel":"","context":"In "Hofsake"","block_context":{"text":"Hofsake","link":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/hofsake\/"},"img":{"alt_text":"George Peters","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/barney_29283.jpg?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1","width":350,"height":200,"srcset":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/barney_29283.jpg?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1 1x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/barney_29283.jpg?resize=525%2C300&ssl=1 1.5x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/barney_29283.jpg?resize=700%2C400&ssl=1 2x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/barney_29283.jpg?resize=1050%2C600&ssl=1 3x"},"classes":[]},{"id":294689,"url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/barney-verhoor-wat-na-verwagting-jare-kan-duur-kom-nie-op-dreef\/","url_meta":{"origin":297653,"position":1},"title":"Barney-verhoor wat na verwagting jare kan duur kom nie op dreef","author":"Noordkaap Bulletin","date":"20 November 2025","format":false,"excerpt":"Die verhoor waarin die vermeende bendeleier George Peters, bekend as Barney, en 15 ander in die beskuldigdebank sit, kom net nie op dreef nie.","rel":"","context":"In "Court"","block_context":{"text":"Court","link":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/court\/"},"img":{"alt_text":"George Peters, ook bekend as Barney.
