Bail hearing continues for Henning murder accused

The bail hearing of Chanelle Henning murder accused and former police officer Andre Gouws will continue in the Pretoria Magistrate's Court on Wednesday.

Before the postponement last week, the court heard that Gouws – one of five men accused of killing Henning – had the offices of a psychologist appointed to evaluate Chanelle, her husband Nico and their child under surveillance.

Gouws's lawyer, Anel Jacobs, told the court her client kept surveillance after he became worried about “outside influence”, which contravened a court order.

Jacobs said Gouws had compiled an affidavit on how the court order was contravened. It was unclear who instructed Gouws to keep watch on the offices.

Henning was shot dead by two men on a motorbike after dropping her son off at a nursery school in Faerie Glen on November 8 last year.

She and her husband were separated and involved in a custody battle over the boy.
