Radovan Krejcir’s lawyers on Friday told Eyewitness News he handed himself over to police overnight after reaching a private agreement with Hawks boss Anwar Dramat.
Krejcir is now behind bars in a secret location. He had been on the run since Tuesday night when a Hawks raid found a hit list containing the name of Cyril Beeka, who was killed on Monday in Cape Town. The list also included security consultant Paul O’Sullivan, a doctor and state prosecutor.
One of Krejcir’s attorney’s Eddie Claasen said everything went according to plan when Krejcir presented himself to police. “What was intended was that Mr. Krejcir can be handed over to the police and avoid the media frenzy that previously took place at the raided Mr. Krejcir’s home,” he said.
Meanwhile, O’Sullivan, who has been investigating Krejcir, said his detention does not mean people on the Czech fugitive’s hit list are now safe. He said those on the list should still take precautions, “This is a man who was able to arrange murders in the Czech Republic while he was in prison. He was arranging murders in the Czech Republic while he was in the Seychelles.”
The Hawks’ McIntosh Polela said Krejcir is now in a secret location, “He was detained in the early hours of the morning and we are still making provisions for when he is likely to appear in court.” Krejcir had been due to hand himself over on Thursday morning.
