Once seen as the ‘crown prince’ of game rangers in the Kruger National Park , Rodney Landela , was back in court from June 10 to 14, facing rhino poaching charges.
Both horns of the animal had been removed. Rangers patrolling the area had heard three gunshots and started looking for the suspects. A SANParks helicopter which was patrolling nearby was deployed to the scene and was able to track a suspected vehicle. This made the other rangers suspicious and they searched the vehicle, where they found two pairs of bloodied shoes as well as an axe in the back.
Landela had a distinguished career as a ranger, and it was generally believed he would one day become chief ranger of the world-renowned park. Both Landela and Motshotsho were later found guilty during a disciplinary hearing and were dismissed.
