‘l'm embarrassed for making a spectacle of myself’ - accused husband killer
Cape Times
|December 05, 2025
THE trial against accused husband killer Zurenah Smit has been postponed to next year after she was inconsolable in court yesterday morning.
This happened after Smit handed over a handwritten letter to the court to apologise for her emotional breakdown in the dock on Wednesday.
Smit is accused of masterminding her husband Stefan Smit's murder at Louisenhof Farm on June 2, 2019. She and her co-accused Derek Sait remain out on bail of R5 000 each until the matter will resume on January 26.
During her continued testimony, Smit said on the fateful night, one of the assailants who entered the farm home, shouted “minutes” which was “pronounced differently” before a shot rang out and “everything went quiet”.
