Five men are standing trial for the 2014 murder in what police believe was a hit.
JOHANNESBURG - Evidence given by a forensic analyst in the Senzo Meyiwa trial has been corroborated by the version of one of the accused on his whereabouts hours before the football star was murdered.
Cellphone data presented by Pinky Vythilingam has shown that a cellphone linked to the third accused Mthobisi Mncube was pinging at a tower in Vosloorus just hours before Senzo Meyiwa was killed.This matches the version by state witness Constable Sizwe Zungu that Mncube was among the men who were at the Vosloorus Basotho Hostel on the day Senzo Meyiwa was killed.
But it also shows that a call between cellphones attributed to Mncube and Fisokuhle Ntuli pinged at the Benrose Tower near the George Goch hostel. This corroborates Ntuli’s version, presented by his lawyer Advocate Zandile Mshololo in October last year.The last time Mncube’s phone was caught on a cellphone tower on the day Meyiwa was killed was in a place called Alexander Park just before 7pm.
