When the badly beaten and burned body of 23-year-old David Olyne was discovered at an abandoned pump station just outside Bella Vista in Ceres in the Western Cape, it immediately became clear his murder had been a rage-filled attack.
Olyne was buried at his home in Williston, Northern Cape.
He had worked at the Family Food and Meat Market, in Ceres, for four years. His manager, Heather Muller, described him as a “jolly” person who always stayed out of trouble.
She “could not fathom” why he was murdered.
“He was a friendly person; he lit up the workplace every morning,” said Muller.
“He would burst into song, turn up the radio and make me coffee.”
