Kinnear (43) was gunned down in front of his home shortly after 3pm on Friday afternoon [September 18], according to SAPS spokesperson Brigadier Vishnu Naidoo.

Brigadier Novela Potelwa said Kinnear was found in his vehicle, shot several times in the upper body. He was pronounced dead shortly thereafter.

Kinnear was attached to the Western Cape Anti-Gang Unit as a section commander involved in investigations into several high profile cases resulting in multiple arrests. He was the investigating officer on the extortion case of alleged underworld figure Nafiz Modack, and many other similar cases.

Former rugby player Zane Killian (39) appeared in the Bishop Lavis Magistrate’s Court on Friday, September 25 in connection with the murder. He was charged with murder, conspiracy to commit murder and the illegal interception of communications. Kilian is expected back in court on October 5.
