A police officer who was run over by a car and killed in Lichtenburg will be laid to rest on Wednesday.

Eunice Nortman, from the local Crime Intelligence Unit, was killed last week when an alleged unlicensed driver rammed into her at a shopping centre.

He was seen on video footage ramming into the 53-year-old crime intelligence warrant officer, who was crossing the road at a shopping centre.

A 23-year-old suspect, Akilesh Gupta, appeared in court over the incident on Tuesday, facing a murder charge among others.

Gupta is also charged with driving without a valid licence and contravening the Immigration Act.

He entered the country from India two years ago on a visitor's visa, which has since expired.
