Anje Kiesling

Anje Kiesling (1947 - 2013)

Brief overview:

Anje (66), and her husband Willem Kiesling 'Will' (69) were murdered on their farm in Lephalale, Limpopo in March 2013.

A 16-year-old buy pleaded guilty to the murders, as well as the theft of a gun, two cellphones and the couple's bakkie (pick-up truck). He appeared before Magistrate Gerhard Pretorius in the Mokopane Magistrate's Court.

The proceedings were held behind closed doors because the boy is a minor. He was arrested at his guardian's house in Mossel Bay, Western Cape, in March. He initially appeared in the Mossel Bay Magistrate's Court, and the matter was transferred to Mokopane because the bodies of the couple were discovered on their farm near Lephalale.
