Here white coffin remained closed during the ceremony due to the bad state of decomposition.

The funeral took place just days before her murder-accused boyfriend, Ashwin Davids, and his co-accused, Mozaid Gas-ant, are expected to be back in the dock at the Wynberg Magistrate’s Court next week, 21 January, for the continuation of their formal bail application.

The State has since indicated that it would be opposing the bail application.
