Maria Mushwana – the mother of police officer Nomia Rosemary Ndlovu on Thursday contradicted the alibi given by her daughter on where she was in January 2018 at the time of Brilliant Mashego’s death.
“I had transport to head back to Johannesburg. A boyfriend of mine at the time was working, doing deliveries and on that day, he was meant to drive back to Joburg so he was to give me a lift back,” said Ndlovu.
Ndlovu’s evidence was crucial because a cellphone expert who had been called by the state had placed her phone in the same vicinity as Brilliant’s around the time of his death. Their cellphones had pinged several of the same towers on the days around Mashego’s death. The court has heard evidence that Mashego usually took calls from Ndlovu in secret. His cousins, who lived with him at his paternal grandmother’s house, told the court that Ndlovu would instruct him to move if he was near people so that they could talk.
