Vuyo Dondashe, a 22-year-old man from Strand, has been found guilty of the brutal murder of his mother and twin sister.
Cape Town - Western Cape High Court Judge Derek Wille said evidence brought before him by the State had proven beyond reasonable doubt that he killed his mother Nolwazi Nongoma, 60, and his twin sister, Vuyokazi Dondashe, 21 .
“The evidence by the State is overwhelming and unchallenged. No shields were put up by the accused to defend himself. “I don’t accept that the accused conveniently left his residence at 8pm, lost his mind, and miraculously the following day, was clear minded again,” said Judge Wille.
