💨 Abstract

A BackaBuddy campaign is raising funds for the family of Marius van der Merwe, known as “Witness D” in the Madlanga Commission. Van der Merwe, a former Ekurhuleni Metro Police officer, was assassinated after testifying about police corruption. Hailed as a "national hero," he leaves behind a wife and two sons. The campaign aims to cover their financial needs, including school expenses and medical costs.
