Western Cape Police Commissioner urges domestic violence victims to speak out [SOUND]

# Western Cape Police Commissioner Sizakhele Dyantyi has urged victims of domestic violence to come forward and speak out so that perpetrators can be prosecuted. The call comes after the provincial High Court sentenced Duncan Hoorn to life imprisonment for kidnapping, murder and defeating the ends of justice. He was found guilty of killing his wife, Chantal Pasquali. Police spokesperson Wesley Twigg says the victim was assaulted and subsequently died in hospital due to the injuries she sustained during a domestic dispute with the accused:
