An explosive recording containing the voices of two police officers accused of murdering 16-year-old Nathaniel Julies has lifted the lid on how the officers allegedly conspired to cover up the killing.
Sithole told the court that he recorded the 20-minute clip on their way to Eldorado Park police station after they left Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic Hospital in Diepkloof, Soweto, where Julies was declared dead.
In a later segment of the recording, Whiteboy is heard saying: “Guys, I’m going to be arrested, neh?”She continued: “Why the hell did he give us live rounds. He knows its dangerous.”
