Nov 27, 2020

The Coligny two men – Phillip Schutte and Pieter Doorewaard – who were convicted in the High Court in Mmabatho of the murder of teenager Mathlomola Moshoeu in April 2017 – have been acquitted on all charges in the Supreme Court of Appeal in Bloemfontein, South Africa, today (Friday 27 November).

The duo were accused of throwing the teenager off a moving vehicle, after he allegedly stole about R80 worth of sunflowers. Schutte and Doorewaard maintained that Moshoeu had fallen off in a case that fuelled racial tensions in South Africa.
