The Ermelo Magistrate’s Court in Mpumalanga has again postponed the case of nine suspects arrested in connection with the murder of police officer, Piet Pretorius.

Pretorius, who was the Ermelo Vehicle Investigation Unit Commander, was gunned down in January this year.

Five of the suspects were arrested the following day, while the other four were arrested last month.

The four suspects will appear again in the same court next week.

Their five co-accused will appear again in June.
