The Port Elizabeth Express is reporting from the High Court in Gqeberha today, where Arnold Terblanche, who is accused of orchestrating the murder of his estranged wife, Vicki Terblanche, will be appearing. Also in court will be his co-accused, Vicki’s boyfriend at the time of her death, Reinhardt Leach.
Vicki Terblanche’s body was found in a shallow grave in Greenbushes in October 2021.
PE Express reporters Gugulethu Mtumane and Shanti Jafta are attending the court proceedings, which are set to start soon.
During court proceedings last week state advocate Marius Stander handed the defense team the list of possible Section 204 witnesses. Among the names on the list are Terblanche’s daughter, Natalie Nell, as well as his domestic worker Nyameko Sharon Yelani, who was on the crime scene after the murder. Also on the list is Arnold Terblanche’s girlfriend at the time, Krystal Wiggill as well as Dylan Cullis, who was last year sentenced to 18 years in prison following his confession to his involvement in the murder.
This is a developing story and will be updated regularly.
