MORKEL HIRES TOP DETECTIVE TO PROBE FRIEND’S MURDER
PRETORIA: South Africa allrounder Albie Morkel has hired the country's top detective to investigate into the murder of his close friend and former cricketer Louis Vorster here last week. Piet Byleveld, now in private practice after a distinguished career as the top detective in the South African Police services, confirmed to the Afrikaans daily Beeld that Morkel had asked him in his private capacity to assist in the investigation. Vorster was killed and a bag containing a huge amount of money was stolen from his vehicle in broad daylight at a filling station alongside a busy highway last Tuesday.
