The three denied knowledge of the crimes, but Judge Moses Mavundla rejected this on Wednesday when he handed down judgment.
Mavundla said he was satisfied that the State had proved its case beyond reasonable doubt.


On September 5, 2012, Anton Botha picked up his daughters Alyssa and Meghan from a friend's house when Alyssa was shot dead.

 

The men shot Anton Botha in the abdomen and he lost a kidney as a result.


Meghan was shot twice in the legs.


Jordaan was shot during a robbery in the area and died in hospital.
