Forensics for Justice, a non-profit organization, is offering a R1 million reward for information that will lead to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for arranging the murder of detective, Lieutenant Colonel Charl Kinnear.
Kinnear, who was attached to the Western Cape
Anti-Gang Unit, was gunned down in front of his house in Bishop Lavis on
Friday.
Carlisle Kinnear, son of Charl Kinnear,
recounted the events that unfolded seconds before his father’s fatal shooting.
“My last conversation with him was 30 seconds
before he was shot. He phoned me to pull my car out of the driveway, he was
standing there waiting for me.’’ Kinnear told the Weekend Argus
Western Cape Premier Alan Winde described Kinnear as an officer who was committed to keep the community safe. Winde called on Police Minister Bheki Cele and President Cyril Ramaphosa to employ more police to strengthen the service as an institution.
A memorial service will be held later this
week.
Hawks spokesperson
Lieutenant-Colonel Philani Nkwalase said that the murder of the police officer
was still under investigation by a multi-disciplinary team led by the Hawks.
