ALLEGED CHILD SEX MASTERMIND WANTED A GUN TO TAKE HIS OWN LIFE, COURT TOLD.
Gerhard Ackerman, the man accused of running a child sex ring, allegedly tried to find a firearm to shoot himself because he didn’t want to go to jail.
This was revealed in the Gauteng High Court in Johannesburg on Monday. Ackerman is standing trial on hundreds of charges related to a sex ring allegedly involving the trafficking of young children for clients who would then sexually abuse them.
Ackerman went missing on Thursday after failing to appear in court. He was found on Sunday and re-arrested.
Wearing a dirty white T-shirt and short pants, with visible injuries on his knees and forehead, Ackerman listened to statements read out by the State.
Ackerman also allegedly said he needed a gun to kill himself because he didn’t want to go to jail.
The trial is continuing.
