▫️South Africa: Heidelberg lawyer in court for human trafficking, claims love for 13-year-old (UPDATE)
The court heard that the lawyer from Heidelberg was in love with the 13-year-old girl, who he previously said he thought was an adult and paid the mother to stop her from being used as a prostitute.
This is what attorney Carel Schoeman told the regional court prosecutor from the Boksburg Magistrate’s Court, Maria Fyfe, during a consultation with him.
Fyfe was the latest witness to testify as the trial against the attorney and his co-accused, the 39-year-old mother, resumed in a high court sitting in Palm Ridge on November 27.
