Cape Town â Convicted hit-and-run killer Rafiek Hayners will spend the next six years behind bars for the crash which killed a six-year-old girl and her nanny after being sentenced at the Wynberg Regional Court.
However, the father of little Shaylynn Arendse says after three years of dutifully attending court appearances hoping for justice, they were cruelly let down.
Hayners was found guilty of culpable homicide for the crash which killed Shaylynn and her nanny Maureen Abrahams, 61, from Lotus River on 27 September 2018.
Shaylynn had been a pupil at Strandfontein Primary School and had been visiting her nanny who lived in Lotus River, for the school holidays when tragedy struck.
