A 40-year-old man has handed himself over to police for the murder of City of Cape Town official, Wendy Kloppers. Kloppers was shot dead in Delft in February last year in an apparent case of mistaken identity.
The 48-year-old Kloppers, who
worked for the city’s environmental affairs department was visiting the Delft
Symphony Way housing project site to conduct an inspection when she was gunned
down.
Kloppers was allegedly
mistaken for a woman who won the construction contract, as the culprits were
believed to be part of the construction mafia.
According to reports the
suspects arrived at the housing construction site on foot and asked to speak
with an unknown individual when he suddenly started shooting at the individuals
on the site. Wendy Kloppers died on the scene due to injuries sustained and a
second victim, 40 years old, sustained a gunshot wound to her arm”.
“The arrested suspect will
appear in the Cape Town Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday on charges of murder and
attempted murder,” Police spokesperson
FC Van Wyk said.
