OBSERVING GENOCIDE HISTORY
Detectives have seen the photo taken seconds before Le Roux fell, but they have not been shown photographs taken of her before that.
“Everyone who has seen them says she looks sad,” said the source.
The detectives were also unaware that there were family members who still have unanswered questions about circumstances around her death.
Detectives have not yet established the exact spot where Le Roux slipped and fell to her death and there has been no reconstruction of the accident scene.
It has emerged that shortly before her death, Le Roux had her grandmother’s name tattooed on her wrist and explained that it was so that her grandmother could recognise her in heaven.
She also had the co-ordinates of Arch Rock near Keurbooms River tattooed on her torso because that was where she got engaged and where she wanted her ashes spread.
“There is so much that makes no sense,” said a family source. “There are all these loose ends. All we want is the truth.”
Andrew refused to talk about the accident. “I’m not saying anything out of respect to my wife. I don’t think she would want to be spoken about in the way that it has been explained what happened. It’s very hard reading information that’s not true.
“Revisiting this makes the long, hard journey to recovery only much harder, and offers no benefit to anyone.”

About 353 000 Pontian-greeks died as a result of ethnic cleansing, including massacres and deportations of the 3 million Christian Orthodox, not only in this area, but the whole of Asia Minor.
The aim of the presentation was to create awareness of such crimes against humanity and highlight our obligation to ensure that history never repeats itself. The programme featured cultural presentations by SAHETI School pupils on this theme. The Pontian Federation of Greece sent a message applauding the initiative.
