Senzo Meyiwa trial: More murder claims against Kelly Khumalo emerge - Advocate Zandile Mshololo calls two case dockets for Meyiwa’s murder a ‘gross irregularity’
, which allegedly recommended the prosecution of Kelly Khumalo and two of her relatives, will cause a “lengthy postponement” of the trial.
The former Bafana Bafana and Orlando Pirates captain was shot at the Vosloorus, Gauteng, family home of his girlfriend, singer Kelly Khumalo, in what the state alleges was a botched house robbery. Mshololo, who was accused of using “uncouth language” by state prosecutor George Baloyi, said the second docket was only disclosed to her on Wednesday, yet the state had been aware of it since 23 March.
Addressing Mosia, Teffo had said: “I put it to you that … an eyewitness will testify that Senzo Robert Meyiwa was shot by Nonhlanhla Kelly Khumalo by mistake. The same eyewitness will further testify that the firearm used to shoot Senzo Robert Meyiwa came with Longwe Twala, and that firearm was a revolver.”
“There is an administrative way of discharging this decision [to prosecute]. Accused number five needs to be informed about the reasons about the decisions taken in the [second case docket].”
