Vos was die eienaar van \u2019n mikroleningsbesigheid op die dorp.<\/p>\n<p>Toe <i>Standard<\/i> vroe\u00ebr vanjaar by die Montagu-polisie navraag gedoen het, het hulle ges\u00ea die saak word as \u2019n selfdood hanteer. Hulle het egter verlede week \u2019n inhegtenisneming bevestig. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cOns het ook maar gehoor iemand is weens my pa se moord in hegtenis geneem. Ons het glad nie vermoed dat dit \u2019n werknemer sou wees nie,\u201d het Martin Vos se seun, Paul, ges\u00ea. <\/p>\n<p>Hy het voorts ges\u00ea die persoon het net nooit n\u00e1 die moord en begrafnis teruggekeer werk toe nie.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHy het net nooit teruggegaan nie. Selfs sy vrou was by die werk en wou weet wat met haar man aangaan omdat hy glo vreemd opgetree het. My ouma moes hom toe later op die regte manier afdank en \u2019n afdankingsbrief is later aan hom gegee.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Vos s\u00ea hulle het van die begin af geweet sy pa is vermoor en het nie weens selfdood gesterf nie.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs dit selfdood was, sou daar \u2019n vuurwapen by my pa op die toneel gel\u00ea het. Geen vuurwapen is naby hom gevind nie.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Die polisie het egter nie veel uitgebrei oor die toneel in hul antwoord op <i>Standard <\/i>se navraag nie. <\/p>\n<p>Die Montagu-polisie se woordvoerder, sers. Suria Meyer, het ges\u00ea Martin Vos se lyk is omstreeks 16:00 naby die Turtle-draai in Montagu gekry. <\/p>\n<p>Volgens Paul was sy pa \u2019n ware mense-mens en kon nie stilsit nie.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHy het \u2019n goeie hart gehad en wou almal altyd help. Hy was ook \u2019n baie fikse mens en het elke dag geoefen of saam met die honde gaan stap. Hy was ook \u2019n kranige fietsryer en het die meeste naweke saam met my ma gery.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hy s\u00ea dit gaan tans goed met sy ma, Reanda. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSy vaar goed in die omstandighede. En ek en my broer is hier vir haar wanneer sy iets nodig het.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Die 49-jarige verdagte is op 9 Junie op borgtog vrygelaat en moet op 20 September weer in die hof verskyn.
