Within 20 minutes after Cloete and Thomas Murray left Melrose Arch in Johannesburg at just before 14:00 on Saturday, an unknown number of gunmen would open fire on their Toyota Prado in broad daylight as they drove along the N1 North on the way back to Pretoria.
Thomas, 28, was declared dead at the scene, while Cloete, 57, was struck at least once in the head and died on Sunday morning at Netcare Sunninghill Hospital. Their car came to a stop just after the New Road bridge.
News24 has pieced together the movements they made on the day of the shooting, and has discovered the pair were working on a major liquidation case involving R26 million in properties, linked to a bigger matter in which at least R176 million was at stake.
