Sachs - LW pilot with brother in SAAF?

Burns' book BADER'S MEN states that Lt. Albert "Bertie" Sachs, SAAF, who flew Spitfires with 92 Squadron in Italy in 1943 (and was the subject of an earlier query by me here) was of German background and that in 1943 his brother was flying Bf 109s for the Luftwaffe in Italy!

Does anyone know who this brother might be? Any other information on this?
