Durban - The husband of a much-loved Chatsworth former school principal removed his glasses to wipe away his tears as the knife allegedly used to stab him the night his wife was murdered was presented in court on Tuesday. The black-handled knife was allegedly taken from the couple’s kitchen and was later recovered, along with crockery items on which the attackers had enjoyed cake and tea moments before the attack.

Last week, the court heard that the couple offered their attackers tea and cake shortly before they attacked them at their home. Maharaj identified several items presented in court as exhibits as those he found in the bushes, including the knife allegedly used to stab Pillay. “It was a dense, bushy area. I picked up each item and placed them in the evidence bags,” said Maharaj.“I went to the house where I was told I would find him. I asked him if he was in possession of a gold necklace, and he said he was. He went into the house and came back with it,” he said.
