Duncan Hoorn in court
Ending day three of the murder trial of Hanover Park mother Chantel Pasqualle-Hoorn, the State called its third witness to the stand, with an Anti-Gang Unit officer recounting a conversation he said left him stunned.
Constable Warrick Fortuin testified in the Western Cape High Court sitting in the Wynberg Regional Court on Wednesday about a visit he made to the couple's home on July 11, 2024, during which Duncan Hoorn allegedly admitted assaulting his wife.
Hoorn has pleaded not guilty to charges of kidnapping, murder and defeating the administration of justice.
Fortuin told the court that upon arriving at the residence, he was greeted by Hoorn, who emerged from inside the house.
