'I was sure I was dying': Reiger Park accused alleges police torture
Reagan Cheslin Collis, accused of killing two Gauteng police officers and two women in Reiger Park, Ekurhuleni, has told the Boksburg Magistrate's Court that police tortured him to confess to the killings.
Collis, a 23-year-old accused in the Reiger Park killings, confessed to the court that he was tortured into admitting his guilt. Police allegedly subjected him to hours of torture, including putting plastic over his head, to force a confession. Collis, who lives with his family and has several pending criminal cases, claims he was at home with friends when the shooting occurred and has an alibi supported by video footage.
He intends to present three video recordings showing his whereabouts during the incident and denies possessing any firearm. Collis argues that he poses no danger to the public and should be granted bail.
