Cop acquitted over Mido Macia murder
The Citizen reports: One of the nine former police officers accused of murdering Mozambican taxi driver Mido Macia was acquitted by the North Gauteng High Court in Pretoria.
On Tuesday, August 4 Matome Ramatlou walked out of the court a free man after Judge Bert Bam told him that there was no evidence linking him to the murder.
