There has been no media outrage over the mystery-death on July 5 2013 of Hartbeespoort security-company owner Hannes Potgieter, arrested in May by the Hawks, and who 'fell ill in the police cells', was rushed to Brits hospital under police-guard, where he died.

(Last year in South Africa, more than 900 people died in SAPS detention. At the height of the anti-apartheid riots from 1963 and 1990, during the states of emergency, a total of 73 people were reported by the SAP as having died in custody in those 27 years. The ANC claims there were 'THOUSANDS'in those years. PAGE VIEWS of the death-lists from 1963 to 1990 - because most people cannot believe those 1963-1990 statistics.

Hartbeespoort businessman and resident Hannes Potgieter who was arrested by the HAWKS for the unlawful possession of unlicensed firearms in May, died of a heart attack in Brits on Friday while in police custody.
According to police Warrant Officer Mpeile Talane, Potgieter "was admitted to the Brits Hospital after he fell ill in the cell', was taken under police guard to the Brits hospital, where he died. Potgieter, who owned a security company, was arrested by the HAWKS early in May and 21 firearms were seized. He accused the HAWKS of stealing five firearms at the time.

“According to an inventory there were 26 firearms. Potgieter claimed not to know where the other firearms were and lodged a complaint with the police accusing the HAWKS of stealing five firearms,” HAWKS spokesperson Col Paul Ramaloke said at the time.
An additional charge of perjury was laid against him. The Brits Magistrate’s court denied bail and ordered that the R10 000 bail posted last year for a similar arrest be forfeited.Potgieter was also arrested in January 2012 after the HAWKS searched his house in Rietfontein and seized 20 firearms and 700 rounds of ammunition.
Potgieter was in custody in the police cells in Brits where he was awaiting his next court appearance scheduled for 23 July 2013.
