Packham a ‘very good actor’ – judge

Rob Packham has proved himself a"very good actor" by living a double life, the Western Cape High Court heard on Thursday.Defence advocate Craig Webster questioned why his client would return to Diep River station where his wife’s car was alight minutes after ostensibly being seen by witness Keanan Thomas driving away in his white Audi.

Steyn also found Packham's behaviour strange when he arrived with relatives and friends at Diep River station where Gill’s car was alight. She said she would have expected a pro-active stance from a husband who must have believed his missing wife was still inside the green BMW.Webster said extramarital affairs involved deceit and untruths, but this wouldn’t make those who committed them murderers.He further argued that the evidence of the two eyewitnesses who identified Packham should not carry any weight.

Webster, however, said Gray – who wears bifocals and long distance sunglasses – had conceded that he couldn’t get a good look at the person as both of their windows were closed. He later also couldn’t describe the man when asked by police.
