Court bungle sees murder suspect freed

NMU student’s family fear alleged killer will never be brought to book

The anguished family of a Nelson Mandela University student who died after a brutal beating fear the man suspected of killing him will never be brought to book after he was set free following a bungle at court.

Detectives are also still investigating links between the gang and various taxi-cab drivers, who were allegedly dropping people off in various suburbs to commit robberies and then later picking them up and acting as getaway drivers while also transporting the stolen goods.
