Fred van der Vyver has won his civil claim against the Police Minister in the Western Cape High Court.
Van der Vyver claims he was maliciously prosecuted by police investigators when he was accused of murdering his girlfriend, Inge Lotz, in Stellenbosch, in 2005.
He was acquitted of the charges but has since sued the Minister for 46-million-Rands.
A separate trial will be held next year to decide how much money he is entitled to.
