Rondebult triple murder accused to remain in custody until bail application

The suspected Rondebult triple murderer will spend at least a week behind bars before his bail application.

Eugene Botha made his first appearance at the Germiston Magistrates Court on Thursday where he stands accused of murdering both his parents and sister.

The decomposing bodies of Johan, Jane, and Sune were discovered on Tuesday afternoon by community members stuffed inside an abandoned bakkie not too far from their home.

Eugene displayed a relaxed demeanour in court as the state accused him of murdering his father, mother and sister.

As he is currently unemployed, Eugene has requested a legal aid lawyer.

He is expected back in court next Thursday for his formal bail application.

Botha remains in police custody.
