    Last year, a thorough investigation uncovered the details behind one of the strangest murders to be admitted into the court record since Oscar Pistorius tried to justify firing off rounds at a bathroom door.

    Rob Packham’s wife was found burned in her car in what some assumed was a botched hijacking. Packham was later found guilty of the murder. 

    Now a new case has authorities scratching their heads.

    This past Thursday, a woman in Table View found her boyfriend’s body in the boot of her car.

    IOL reports that “screams were heard in Blaauwberg Road shortly before 8PM”:

    According to a source, the man had apparently dropped his girlfriend at work in Montague Gardens on Thursday morning, but did not fetch her as planned.

    “He took her to work and was supposed to fetch her at 4pm but never arrived,” says the source.

    “She could not reach him and got a lift home with a friend.

    “When she got home, she phoned the tracking company and they told her where the car was.

    “She went to Blaauwberg Road with a spare key and opened the car and that is when she found him in the boot and the screams were heard.

    A private security officer heard her screaming and called the police. According to a source, when they inspected the body they found that the man’s feet were bound and his head was covered with a bag.

    “This is the part that doesn’t make sense; in the car were the keys, his wallet and cellphone and nothing appeared to be stolen.”

    The police are currently waiting for the autopsy results before investigating a murder, says SAPS spokesperson Sergeant Noloyiso Rwexana.

    “The circumstances surrounding this incident are under investigation, a post-mortem will be conducted to determine cause of death.”

    Community Police Forum (CPF) chairperson Dave Harris says the incident has raised several questions.

    “It is a very shocking incident as this occurred on the busiest road in Table View,” says Harris.

    “We are hoping the post-mortem will provide clarity on what transpired but we are calling on anyone with information to come forward.

    One would think there may be a murder investigation kicking off soon.
