About Zelda Saaiman
Zelda Saaiman (1957 – 2006)
Brief overview:
Zelda (49) was gunned down and shot dead, when she was driving into the garage of her Brooklyn home on August 24, 2006. The killers fled the family's Marais Street home with only her handbag.
"Gert Saaiman said the police had not come back to the family since his wife's murder. "We have had absolutely no feed back from the police. No one has come back to tell us what is happening with the case." The murder had shown him that there was no future for his children in South Africa, he said. "We are making plans to leave the country," he said."
Zelda’s daughter Bianca said it was terrible not having justice served. "It makes my mom's murder even more difficult to deal with. We want these men caught so that no one else has to lose a mom or a dad," she said. Her mother was like a best friend to them, she said. "She was like an older sister. She was always there for us. She would always make time for us."
Police spokesperson Captain Lucas Sithole said no arrests had been made.
