Man accused of top cop’s murder is back in the dock The bail application of the only suspect arrested for the murder of top cop Lieutenant-Colonel Charl Kinnear is expected to recommence in the Bellville regional court in Cape Town on Tuesday. Zane Kilian was arrested on 23 September 2020, days after assassinating the anti-gang unit detective on 18 September outside his home in Bishop Lavis, Cape Town. Kilian, a former rugby player turned debt collector in Gauteng, was initially charged with murder, conspiracy to commit murder and the unlawful interception of communications. After his first appearance in the Bishop Lavis magistrate’s court on 25 September, the case has seen several delays, partially emanating from the ongoing investigation.
