Remember the time when four Afrikaans teenagers beat a homeless black person to death for fun? They went to jail after protesting their innocence, where they took muscle enhancing stimulants and threw dorm parties before behaving like the smuggest people in the world when they were granted parole. Remember those guys? Two of them are going back to Sing-Sing.
Two members of the Waterkloof Four have been re-arrested after a video was posted on the Internet, showing them having a party in Pretoria’s Kgosi Mampuru prison. They were re-arrested on claims of allegedly illegally smuggling in alcohol and cellphones into prison.
The Waterkloof Four have been slated for parole in February, according to the Correctional Services Department. Reinach Tiedt, Gert van Schalkwyk, Christoff Becker and Frikkie du Preez will be released together on 11 Febuary. The group was initially sentenced to 12 years each after murdering a homeless man in Eastern Pretoria in 2001.
