The Blue Bulls Company has decided to grant Bees Roux some leave until further notice and to exempt him from his rugby obligations for the time being.
Official Blue Bulls release
The executive officer of the BBC, Barend van Graan, said it is essential to grant Roux immediate leave after the incidents of the last couple of days. “He has been through some tough times in recent days and we feel it is appropriate to give him some time to recover from this,” Van Graan said.
The BBC will still not comment on the legal case against Roux and refer all queries in this regard to his legal representative, Mr. Rudi Krause. He can be contacted at +2782 496 0325.
Compassionate leave?
More like embarrasment leave.
General: Internal probe of police in Bees Roux incident
Tshwane Metro Police have started an internal investigation into the incident involving Blue Bulls prop Bees Roux, Sergeant Johannes Mohale (38), who was killed, and two of his colleagues. The rugby player was released on bail of R100 000 on Monday after the defence told the Pretoria Magistrate’s Court that he was a ‘victim of theft by a metro police official’. A Beeld report says Roux was apparently a victim of extortion by a metro police official after a drunken night at a Pretoria strip club. The Flamingo club’s Pieter Crous told the paper the Metro Police regularly wait for his clients outside the club and then extort bribes from them. A stripper confirmed that Roux and a friend visited the club and left in a drunken state after 1am. The incident occurred a few minutes later. The report says the investigation will be the fourth involving Mohale, who was accused of theft and disorderly behaviour in July 2007, unprofessional conduct and dereliction of duty in November 2008 and gross negligence in December 2008. None of these investigations or disciplinary actions was concluded.
@ Loosehead:
Yip, I smell a rat…
I don’t really know what to think here, but the question still remains.
Was it necessary to kill the policeman?
Don’t know the circumstances on whether there was a brawl, whether Bees roux had any self defensive injuries etc.
