Gregory Loftus is testifying about the death of his son, Bevan, who was killed on 1 April 2023.
Bevan Loftus' father, Gregory Loftus, testified before the Madlanga Commission that he believes his son, Bevan, was murdered by police. The incident occurred on April 1, 2023, and Gregory is currently giving testimony about the circumstances surrounding his son's death. According to evidence presented before the commission, Bevan was killed by his rival, Clive Naicker, who allegedly hired a hit squad, led by the Hawks' Deena Govender, to carry out the hit.
The hit was reportedly worth R2.5 million. Gregory Loftus believes that his son was murdered under the guise of a legitimate police operation at the instance of Clive Naicker, a competitor in the tow truck industry and an alleged drug dealer. At the time of the incident, Bevan was hiding with four friends due to a warning that SAPS Captain Deena Govender intended to kill him.
