Missing Porsche tuner: Uwe Gemballa found dead in South Africa - Panorama always enthusiastically told story. namely the short message, which ended today, almost unnoticed by some, a few newspapers The alleged murderer of the car dealer was arrested last Friday in South Africa. That same day, the "offender" is not only the process done, he was immediately - in the truest sense of the word - in a very "short shrift" found guilty and sentenced to a 20-year sentence . is generally understood so well that those responsible for this unpleasant case is a much-forex-making and finally assassinated Europeans - and as quickly as possible - Again want out of the daily themes of the world press. But this raises obvious question of who is really behind why this express condemnation and whom it benefits. And after the statements of some competent South Africans who know the legal system of the country at the Cape well, heard, one must doubt most seriously the fact that the 28-year-old South African Thabiso Mpshe is tätsächlich the long-sought murderer by Uwe Gemballa:
South Africa: Killer of Porsche tuner Gemballa convicted - From around the world - Times Online
"... The 28-year-old Thabiso Mpshe from Pretoria was found, police said on Friday the Supreme Court in Johannesburg guilty. He was sentenced to a 20-year prison sentence. Mpshe was therefore only on the morning of Friday have been arrested. The body of 54-year-old Gemballa was the end of September in Pretoria Atterdigeville been found in a plastic bag after he was regarded as missing since early February. The 54-year-old was on shortly after his arrival from Dubai 8th February in Johannesburg disappeared. The next day he had, according to the German police of his wife by telephone reported an accident and said he needed a large sum of money. He had a surprise phone call to his wife in English geführt. Danach verlor sich seine Spur." Rush hush-hush justice for killer

"...The Sunday Times can today reveal exclusively that 28-year-old Thabiso Mpshe of Pretoria was arrested quietly on Friday and appeared in the high court in Johannesburg that afternoon.
As revealed previously in the Sunday Times, the businessman's body was found buried in Atteridgeville just over a month ago, on September 28.
Police spokesman Colonel Vishnu Naidoo said yesterday: "It is still unclear how Gemballa was murdered, but indications are that he was suffocated. He had no visible injuries."
Naidoo said he was "not at liberty to say" if Mpshe pleaded guilty or whether the prosecution struck a deal with him.
When asked why the arrest in such a high-profile murder case was kept so low key, Naidoo said: "We need to protect any investigation, and it would not be to our benefit to talk about some successes for fear of jeopardising investigations.
"We are happy and satisfied that an arrest was made." Booth, chairman of the Criminal Law Committees of the Cape Law Society and the Law Society of South Africa, while not able to comment on this case, said: "It does seem that the police have struck some kind of deal to perhaps take statements and use it later to get to the big fish." National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) spokesman Mthunzi Mhaga said it was not unusual for a criminal case to be disposed of within a day.
Top criminal attorney William Booth said the hastiness of the conviction and sentence sounded most "unusual".  |
| Gemballa, who was in serious financial trouble with the German authorities, evidently came to South Africa on a business trip to set up a local franchise of his company, Gemballa Automobiletechni, which specialises in tuning Porsches and Ferraris for the rich and famous. |
"This was demonstrated with the World Cup special courts that were set up."
Mhaga said it was commendable that cases could be dealt with so speedily. "If someone is caught red-handed for shoplifting, and if he pleads guilty, and if he has an attorney available, then the case can be finalised in an hour."
But this is also entirely dependent on whether the court roll can accommodate an additional case on the day or not..." Swift justice in murder of German businessman in South Africa m&c-news/southafrica
"...Thabiso Mpshe from Pretoria was arrested Friday and 'quietly' brought before the High Court in Johannesburg and promptly convicted of murder and sentenced to 20 years in prison, the newspaper said.
Gemballa, a 54-year-old specialist in customising Porsche and other luxury cars, was reported missing a day after after arriving in Johannesburg on a business trip in early February. His body was found buried in Atteridgeville, west of Pretoria on September 28.
South Africa, a country with a one of the world's highest murder rates of about 46 a day, has a poor track record in solving such crimes quickly..."
killers of Porsche tuner Gemballa convicted should
Perhaps now the international press, which has earned so many articles and papers on the missing Germans, their environment and destiny good money, sometimes loudly and publicly ask what for now is actually really fast behind the treated of criminal case and the fate of Thabiso Mpshe.
And
No,
we have not forgotten that day in South Africa to the 50 murders on the agenda - and that in most cases black both the victims and the perpetrators are. Explanations can be found many - in the country's history and its current development
And . Yes, however, must be done a lot, also from a clear and fearless reporting by international media. Please not look away.!

But: In this, particular case, the fast-proposed solution seems absurd - and a young, innocent man may indeed have to pay for it is bitter
