2 men found guilty of Coligny teen's murder to be sentenced | J_chabalala
The two men convicted of killing Coligny teen Matlhomola Moshoeu will learn their fate on Wednesday when their sentences are handed down in the North West High Court.
State advocate Rapula Molefe had argued in aggravation of sentencing that Doorewaard and Schutte"lied" when they said Moshoeu jumped from their bakkie while they were taking him to a police station because he had stolen sunflower heads. "The accused involved themselves in a 'cover-up' by placing the deceased's body where it was found," Molefe said, adding that the conduct of the accused led to"public violence, looting and a state of lawlessness" in Coligny.
"I would ask the court to take that into account. [The] sentence must not overemphasise public interest," Zwiegelaar submitted.
