Reiger Park killings: Three accused to appear for bail applications
Three men accused of killing two police officers and two women in Reiger Park, Ekurhuleni, are expected to appear in the Boksburg Magistrate's Court on Tuesday for formal bail applications.
Three men are set to appear in Boksburg Magistrate's Court on Tuesday for bail applications in the Reiger Park killings. Reagan Cheslin Collis, 23, Jamal Meyer and Elvino Levert Crafford, 27, are accused of murdering two Gauteng Anti-Gang Unit officers and two women. Crafford, the third suspect, appeared in court on Friday where his lawyer claimed he was brutally assaulted by police during his arrest.
The court postponed Crafford's bail application to August 25. Collis is said to be the alleged gunman and faces four counts of murder, attempted murder, robbery and charges related to firearms. Meyer also appeared in court last Tuesday, claiming he was assaulted by police and experiencing chest pain. The incident occurred when the officers heard gunshots and were ambushed while patrolling in Reiger Park.
Police maintain Collis is the gunman, but a source claims CCTV footage suggests another man was responsible.
