We defended Ms Potgieter after she was arrested on the strength of an affidavit lodged by Aiyer in respect hereof, had her released on bail (which initially the State was opposed to).
The charges against Potgieter were later withdrawn and we were mandated to lodge a formal complaint with IPID in respect of Aiyers conduct. This resulted in Aiyers dishonourable discharge from SAPS. The DPP will make a decision to prosecute him based on the IPID investigation.
We will never allow our client’s rights to be infringed with impunity by any official and will will always ensure that justice is done and that official is brought to task.
