WINDHOEK, 12 JUL– The trial of Gobabis resident Rachel Rittmann who allegedly connived with her lover to murder her husband in August 2013, is finally set to begin in the High Court here on Friday.
The trial was scheduled to kick off before High Court Judge Christie Liebenberg Thursday morning but could not proceed, because Rittmann’s government-sponsored defence lawyer Hipura Ujaha has not fully recovered from severe hypertension.
The lawyer on Thursday requested the court to postpone the matter until 19 July 2018, but the court rejected this request.
The judge then gave an order that the trial should begin on Friday at about 10h00, because both the prosecution team and State witnesses have now become frustrated over the unnecessary postponements.
The 46-year-old Rittmann is charged with her lover, Ryno Ricardo du Preez, 34, in respect of the death of her husband Rudolf Rittmann, whose burnt remains were found in his car on the Windhoek-Gobabis road on 23 August 2013.
The trial is set to run until 15 August 2018.
The date for the trial was decided upon after reports were released by two private psychiatrists – Drs Reinhardt Sieberhagen and Gerhard Marx – showing Rachel is fit to stand trial and is not suffering from any mental illness as she claimed since June last year.
On 20 June 2017, Rachel, through her defence lawyer Ujaha, asked the High Court to undergo 30 days of mental evaluation at the Windhoek Central Hospital’s psychiatric unit.
She was observed by the two private psychiatrists to determine her mental status prior to, at the time of, and after the commissioning of the offence after she told the court she has a history of anxiety and depression.
Rachel and Du Preez face one count of murder each; a count of conspiracy to murder; a count of defeating or obstructing the course of justice; a count of violating a dead body by setting it alight as well as a count of malicious damage to property.
She allegedly mixed unidentified tablets into her husband’s drink and he became drowsy.
She then called in Du Preez, who was waiting nearby, to kill him.
Rudolf was stabbed 20 times with a sharp object, presumably a knife, while he lay in a state of confusion in his bed.
The two accused then loaded his body into his car and drove it up to the Kappsfarm area, east of Windhoek and a few kilometres from the police checkpoint, where the burnt car was found.
Rachel is being held at the Klein Windhoek Police Station, while Du Preez is being held at the Windhoek Correctional Facility’s holding cells until Friday when they return to court for the start of their trial.
State Advocates Martino Olivier and Ethel Ndlovu are representing the prosecution.
