Expert team investigates BFN doctor’s death─── CHRISTAL-LIZE MULLER 07:37 Mon, 06 Oct 2014

Bloemfontein - A ballistics expert team from Gauteng will re-visit the scene today to investigate the death of a doctor from Bloemfontein whose body was found in his house in Bayswater on Friday.
Police spokesperson, Thandi Mbambo, told OFM News last night that the body of Marius Venter (47) was found with a gunshot wound to the heart. He had an old rusty pistol in his hand.
According to Mbambo police are not ruling out suicide, however it seems as though a lot of effort was put into making Venter’s death look like a suicide attempt.
Mbambo says ballistics experts will conduct a post mortem today before visiting the scene.
Mbambo says no suspects have been identified and there were no eyewitnesses. Venter stayed on his own but shared a stand with his parents.
