A Limpopo pig farmer and his two workers accused of killing two women and disposed their bodies in a pigsty.
The trial of a Limpopo farmer accused of killing two women and throwing their bodies in a pigsty is expected to continue today in the Polokwane High Court in Limpopo.
Zacharia Olivier is facing two counts of murder for allegedly shooting dead Maria Makgato and Kudzai Ndlovu in 2024.
His farm worker, William Musora, has been charged with defeating the ends of justice.
Farm supervisor Rudolph De Wet was charged with murder, but he has since turned State witness.
On Monday, Musora’s lawyer Desmond Nonyane cross-examined De Wet, who said the aim of throwing the bodies in the pigsty was to conceal evidence.
De Wet also told the court that the third accused, Musora, was not present on the day the two women were killed.
Musora is facing a charge of defeating the ends of justice for allegedly helping De Wet and Zacharia dispose of the remains.
Musora’s lawyer has concluded cross-examining De Wet.
The state is expected to call in another witness, a forensic expert, on Tuesday.
