Inspector S. Coothen, the investigating officer, confirmed to YOU that Marietjie will appear in the Mauritian high court in Port Louis on Wednesday. He couldn’t confirm at what police station she’s being held.
“This isn’t a case to be taken lightly,” Coothen said. “It’s manslaughter.”
He says the case is still under investigation and the issue of bail has not been raised. He couldn’t confirm whether Marietjie had applied for legal help or had hired an attorney.
