Francois Hougaard, Rugby Player, Refutes Rumors Relating To Reeva Steenkamp Murder Case, Via Agent
Posted in: Today's ChiliA representative of South African rugby player Francois Hougaard issued a statement acknowledging and attempting to dispel rumors about the young Vodocom Bulls star’s connection to Reeva Steenkamp, the girlfriend of Oscar Pistorius who died in a shooting on Valentine’s Day.
“Our client will not comment on any rumours or answer any questions regarding Reeva Steenkamp or Oscar Pistorius at this stage as this is still an ongoing investigation … this sad ordeal has nothing to do with him,” said Lorinda Voges, a representative from Hougaard’s management company Four Elements, via South African newspaper The Times.
Citing unnamed sources described as “close to the team of detectives investigating the killing of model and lawyer Reeva Steenkamp,” The Times reported on Monday that Steenkamp’s iPad had been recovered at Pistorius’ upscale home and that it is believed to contain messages from friends, including Hougaard, that could be introduced as evidence by prosecutors.
