|April 15, 2025
A FORMER police reservist who was found guilty of murdering a Hanover Park dad is expected to be sentenced today after proceedings were hamstrung yesterday due to an outstanding medical report.
Constable Johan van der Merwe returned to the Wynberg Regional Court yesterday nearly two months after he was convicted for the murder of Marlon Fuller.
The 38-year-old dad died in December 2020 after being struck in the abdomen when Van der Merwe fired a shotgun into a crowd.
His death sparked a riot as angry mense accused cops of opening fire for no reason while trying to disperse the crowd.
