Suspect nabbed for 'conspiring with woman to kill her cop husband': The Eastern Cape Hawks have apprehended a suspect who allegedly conspired with a woman who wanted her police officer husband killed
Simphiwe Mlinjani, 44, appeared in the Butterworth magistrate's court on Friday on a slew of charges, including conspiracy to commit murder, murder and illegal possession of a firearm and ammunition.
Hawks spokesperson Capt Yolisa Mgolodela said the directorate’s serious organised crime unit pounced on Mlinjani in Fort Beaufort on Wednesday. Mgolodela said W/O Kolile Kulu, who worked in Centane, was shot dead at his home in Ndabakazi, Butterworth, on August 30 2021. This after his “wife allegedly conspired to kill him with a group of seven suspects from Queenstown”, said Mgolodela.
Mgolodela said Mlinjani had been on the run since then. He is set to join his co-accused in the Butterworth regional court on Monday.
