Cape Town – Non-profit organisation Forensics for Justice is offering a R1 million reward for information on the murder of insolvency practitioner Cloete Murray and his son, Thomas.
Murray died in hospital on Sunday morning after he and his son were shot by unknown gunmen on the N1 highway in Midrand, Johannesburg on Saturday.
According to eNCA, Forensics for Justice is offering the reward for information that would lead to the arrest and conviction of the people behind the Murray killings.
Forensics for Justice said the crime-fighting community had been left devastated by the passing of Murray and his son.
It said this type of crime, if left unchecked, would bring the country to its knees, Eye Witness News reported.
The organisation said the reward would be given to ensure that the person who ordered the assassination was brought to book.
According to Times Live, Murray was the court-appointed liquidator for state contractor Bosasa whose executives were implicated in state capture allegations before Chief Justice Raymond Zondo.
He was involved in several high-profile insolvency cases related to Eskom corruption and other tentacles of state capture, the report said.
