Die sakeman van Hartenbos, Desmond Share, se liggaam is gekry.
Die 53-jarige Share is sedert laasweek Dinsdag vermis toe hy van Hartenbos na Herbertsdale vertrek het, glo om ‘n kwotasie te gaan gee.
Share, die eienaar van Gutter Gut op Hartenbos, se Ford Ranger-bakkie is sedert sy verdwyning in Kaapstad opgemerk en daar is ook glo geld uit sy rekening onttrek.
Volgens ‘n verklaring deur die polisie is sy liggaam reeds Saterdag tussen Albertina en Herbertsdale gevind, maar weens die sensitiwiteit van die saak het die polisie dit eers Dinsdag bekend gemaak.
Sers. Chris Spies, polisiewoordvoerder, sê ‘n verdagte is reeds in hegtenis geneem en sal na verwagting Dinsdag in die landdroshof vir kaping, moord en ontvoering verskyn.
‘n Verklaring is vanoggend op die blad “Help find Des” geplaas.
“We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has contributed to the efforts in locating Desmond Share.
With heavy hearts, we must convey the devastating news that Desmond has been found, and he has tragically lost his life as a result of a violent incident.
In this somber time, we wish to express our appreciation to the law enforcement authorities for their exemplary and diligent work during this investigation.
The police have successfully apprehended a primary suspect, who is scheduled to be charged tomorrow, while three additional suspects remain at large.
Further information regarding the case will be disseminated by the police at the appropriate junctures.
Additionally, the family intends to issue their own statements in due course, and at this stage we wish to ask for privacy for the family and close friends during this grieving time.
The reason for the delay in certain communications was to ensure the successful apprehension of the suspects.
We are in the process of coordinating with the police to determine the extent of information that can be shared with the public to aid in the search for the outstanding suspects.
We humbly request the public’s cooperation in this endeavor.
It’s worth noting that the vehicle originally associated with this incident has undergone changes and is no longer visibly marked. We kindly urge the public to remain vigilant and report any sightings of a vehicle matching its description if advertised for sale or otherwise.
Once again, we express our sincere gratitude for the support shown during this trying time.
Thank you”
