- By NASHIRA DAVIDS and PETRU SAAL

THE mysterious death of a Bredasdorp woman, Idali van Zyl, who was found dead in her home on Thursday is still being investigat­ed by police.

Police said no “foul play is suspected” but her husband told Die Burger that they had consumed about 4ml of “Liquid G” each.

In a Netwerk 24 video he pleaded with the public to be aware about the danger of experiment­ing with drugs.

“If you want to experiment … be careful because I lost my wife‚’’ said Freddie van Zyl.

In the article he claims he found her in the toilet and that her lips were blue. He also said they had used the drug before and enjoyed it.

The pair were allegedly due to appear in court in Cape Town in connection with his second-hand car dealership‚ according to the article.

Ashley Potts‚ the director of the Cape Town Drug Counsellin­g Centre in Observator­y is aware of the drug. However no one has ever been admitted to the facility for the abuse of “Liquid G’’. “Liquid G would form part of the methamphet­amine [tik] category‚’’ said Potts.

Western Cape police spokesman FC van Wyk said a postmortem will determine exact cause of her death. — DDC
