A second suspect appeared in the Simon's Town Magistrate's Court on Thursday for the murder of surfer David Wolfromm.

Mark Anthony Williams, 33, was arrested in Philippi on Wednesday, two weeks after he and co-accused, Wilson Wilschut, 30, allegedly robbed Wolfromm and shot him before loading him into the back of his silver Nissan X-Trail and stealing it.Police said on Thursday that Williams was arrested after a"task team" was established to find him.

Wilschut was arrested days after the murder which happened on the late afternoon of May 8 as Wolfromm came out of the sea after surfing at Witsand, a quiet beach in the Cape Town southern peninsula. One of the women, a state witness, said she knew the accused and she and her friend got into the car when he asked them if they wanted a ride.

"When the witness got in the vehicle the back seat was folded down. There was something covered in a towel. When she asked what it was the accused told her not to worry," said the prosecution during Wilschut's appearance in court last week.
