A police officer has denied that Senzo Meyiwa murder-accused Bongani Ntanzi believed he was going to freed by the police.
Accused number two Bongani Ntanzi at the Pretoria High Court on 15 September 2022. Picture: Gallo Images/Tebogo Letsiemurder-accused Bongani Ntanzi believed he was going to be freed by the police after confirming his whereabouts on the day the former Orlando Pirates was killed.
Mngomezulu said, according to Ntanzi’s version, five officers including Mogane, lead investigator Brigadier Bongani Gininda and Sergeant Batho Mogola.However, the witness argued that the interview was conducted by himself, Mogola and the late Sergeant Mabena. “You took him at 05:08 in the morning on 18 June 2020. Then you brought him back on 19 June at 2:30 in the early hours of the morning. If I calculate these hours you spent with accused number two, it gives plus minus 17 hours. During these ungodly hours, what were you doing with the accused two?” the defence lawyer asked.
But Mngomezulu argued that his client was under the impression that he was going to be released once Mogane and his colleagues visited the mine.
