Daniels has come to loggerheads with the law on various occasions in connection with the possession of drugs. Anybody who can help the police with their investigation can contact Paarl-East detectives at 021-877-5913. * During the same weekend, shortly after midnight, police came across the body of a prison warder who had been stabbed several times.

Nobody has yet been arrested in connection with the murder. * On Sunday morning 7 December, Raymond Dinga (22) returned to his home in Phola Park which he shared with his mother.
