The murder trial of South African soccer star, Senzo Meyiwa, has been unfolding in the Gauteng High Court, Pretoria, revealing a series of intriguing revelations. Meyiwa was fatally shot on October 26, 2014, at the residence of his thengirlfriend, Kelly Khumalo, in Vosloorus. The trial has five accused individuals who have all pleaded not guilty to the charges brought against them, which include murder, attempted murder, robbery, and illegal possession of a firearm and ammunition.
During a recent hearing at the North Gauteng High Court in Pretoria, advocate Zandile Mshololo, representing Fisokuhle Ntuli, accused number five in the Senzo Meyiwa murder trial, challenged the credibility of Colonel Lambertus Steyn’s testimony. Steyn, an investigation officer and data analyst at the South African Police Services’ Cold Case Unit, had testified about a cellphone link between Ntuli and Meyiwa’s girlfriend, Kelly Khumalo.
The ongoing Senzo Meyiwa murder trial has caused a significant impact on the career of Kelly Khumalo, girlfriend of the late Bafana Bafana goalkeeper. Khumalo was recently removed from the starstudded lineup of the “A Tribute to Women” festival due to concerns about her future engagements.
