Forensic results awaited

FORENSIC investigation is still continuing
in Pretoria following the death of Richards
Bay teacher, Yolanda Willemse.
Police have confirmed that tests will take
up to six weeks to draw a conclusion on the
cause of death and have stated that no foul
play is suspected at this time.
Willemse went missing from her home after
leaving the house to go to the shops.
A huge manhunt by her family and police took
place over three days before her body was
found in her vehicle in the port area three
days later.
Evidence established that Willemse had died
on Tuesday night, but police have still not
been able to verify her whereabouts during
the time she was missing.
This week, her husband Hannes told the
Zululand Observer he wished to thank the
community for all their support during the
family’s traumatic ordeal.
‘Yolande’s funeral took place on Friday and
we are still waiting for the forensic
results.
‘These last few weeks have been very hard
for my family and I would like to thank
everybody who has supported us during this
time, particularly my employers Cleancor,
Hillside Aluminium management and the Bell
helicopter team for making themselves
available on such short notice at the time
of the search.’
