Unlocked & (maybe) unsolved: The murder of Inge Lotz


Listen Later

Back in 2005 the Shiraz complex in Stellenbosch had just been completed and the first set of tenants moved in, including 22-year-old student Inge Lotz. Inge was whip-smart, studying mathematics and stats at the University of Stellenbosch. She was a dedicated student who liked to stick to a schedule for her academic work, so when she wasn’t answering her phone on the night of 16 March 2005, her mom assumed she was head down in a book. Inge’s boyfriend Fred van der Vyver, however, was not as convinced. He’d been trying to reach Inge for hours. He calls a friend who lived nearby and sent him to check things out at Shiraz. There he'd find the savagely attacked body of Inge, kicking off a case that remains perplexing and unsolved today.
