Lynette Volschenk murder suspect due in court today

A petition opposing bail has been signed by more than 9 000 people

A 24-year-old man is due to appear in the Bellville Magistrate’s Court today after the chopped-up body of Lynette Volschenk was found at a Bellville apartment building.

Lynette Volschenk was found murdered at her apartment building in Bellville, Cape Town, on Thursday morning. The 32-year-old woman was discovered around 11:00 after police were called.

Police said they had ” found black bags containing the body of the deceased cut into pieces in another flat” on Thursday. The cause of her death is still unknown.

The accused, Kyle Ruiters, a former Wynberg Boys’ High School pupil, lived on the 9th floor of the Seesig apartment building in Loevenstein with his aunt, who is an advocate.

Body parts of the deceased who worked as a draughtsman for an engineering firm and lived on the 10th floor, were found in black and plastic bags in her apartment as well as that of the accused, Die Burger reported, according to sources.
