Bail ruling expected for four accused in Reiger Park murders
The defence maintains that the State's case is largely based on circumstantial evidence.
The bail ruling for four men accused of the Reiger Park murders is anticipated to be made at the Boksburg Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday morning. The accused, who are charged with four counts of murder, attempted murder, robbery with aggravating circumstances, and unlawful possession of firearms and ammunition, include four men. McFoolen Ford, the fourth accused, has alleged that he was assaulted and intimidated by the police before allegedly signing a statement implicating him in the shooting.
The prosecution opposes bail, contending that the accused may pose a threat to the community and witnesses, whereas the defence argues that the State's case is primarily based on circumstantial evidence.
