On Friday National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) spokesperson in North West, Henry Mamothame, said the three were sentenced in the North West High Court sitting in Klerksdorp.
The accused gained access to the Kathrada home when Ahmed entered the yard from the mosque. His mother who at the time was home with her husband Yunus, went to open the burglar door for him when she heard his sudden scream. Yunus also rushed out of the house to inspect what the commotion was about and found his son shot.Yunus was Ahmed Kathrada's nephew.
"Despite being offered a lift by Ahmed to his home that evening, with plenty opportunities to discard the plan to commit the heinous crimes, he went on to warn his co-conspirators of Ahmed’s movement. He even attended the scene of the murder where he subsequently received a call from one of his co-conspirators," Mamothame said.
