Johannesburg - Five suspects who were arrested in connection with the murder of former crime intelligence Major-General Hendrick Mogoerane, including the deceased's wife Cordelia Mogoerane, were on Friday granted bail of R10 000 each by the Kempton Park Magistrate Court.
Three other accused were denied bail. Magistrate Prince Manyathi said all five suspects would remain behind bars until their bail is paid.
Altogether, eight suspects were arrested last week after being positively linked to Mogoerane murder. His body was found in the back seat of his car in Norkem Park, east of Johannesburg in January.
