AfriForum’s head of private prosecutions, Advocate Gerrie Nel, said he was disappointed that the police had not made more arrests.
"I am very critical of the fact that no new arrests have been made. We thought in October when they appeared last there was enough evidence. I had a briefing from police and police management and they assured me they had collected more evidence against the mastermind.”
