Suspects in Hillary Gardee murder case to appear in court

Three suspects arrested in connection to the Hillary Gardee murder case are expected to appear in the Nelspruit Magistrate’s Court in Mpumalanga on Monday morning.

Gardee was abducted two weeks ago and her body was found dumped along the Lydenburg road outside Mbombela. She is the daughter of the former Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) Secretary-General, Godrich Gardee.

One of the suspects was arrested on Friday and the other two at the weekend.  Police say more people could be added as their investigation continues.

In a statement, the EFF said that its members will accompany the Gardee family to court.

The party said that they and the Gardee family will ensure that the police have all the adequate resources to carry out their investigations.

Hillary Gardee was laid to rest on Saturday.
