Frankfort - The three people accused of murdering a 66-year-old farmer from Frankfort are due in the town's Magistrate's Court today. Their previous court appearance last month was postponed to allow the suspects to arrange their legal representation. Two men from Oranjeville and a woman from Frankfort were arrested last month, shorty after Helgard Muller was shot in the head at his farm Mara. The men from Oranjeville were arrested in the Frankfort vicinity about three hours after the attack. The arrest led police to a woman's house in Frankfort where they found a firearm, which was possibly used to shoot the farmer. All three suspects face charges of armed robbery and murder.
