Richard Smit wat tereg staan op sewe aanklagte van onder meer moord, poging tot moord, die afvuur van \u2019n vuurwapen in die openbaar, die gebruik van \u2019n vuurwapen onder invloed van dwelms of alkohol en aanranding. Natasha Booise (32) is op tweede Nuwejaarsdag na bewering deur haar k\u00earel, \u2019n polisie\u00adman, in Piketberg se hoofstraat doodgeskiet omdat sy verkies het om gehaltetyd saam met haar familie deur te bring. Die voorval het voor haar seun (toe 11) en ander familielede gebeur. Die formele borgtogaansoek sou Donderdag 17 Februarie begin, maar Smit se regsverteenwoordiger, adv. William Booth, het \u2019n siektenota vir die hof ingestuur. Die staat het aangedui dat die saak nie elke keer net uitgestel kan word nie omdat dit nie in die belang van die gemeenskap en geregtigheid is nie en het aangedui dat verrigtinge met of sonder sy regsverteen\u00adwoordiger vandag (Donderdag) sal begin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Die verdagte is ook oor die vingers getik nadat hy \u2019n versoek gerig het om eerder in die Saron-polisieselle aangehou te word.

Die verdagte sal vandag (Donderdag) hoor of hy borgtog gaan kry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Intussen daag die gemeenskap steeds in hul massas by die hof op om die Booise-familie te ondersteun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sy het gesterf aan die hand van \u2019n persoon wat veronderstel is om veral kwesbare vroue en kinders te be\u00adskerm en nou wil hy
