Popular rapper Kiernan “AKA” Forbes and Tebello “Tibz” Motsoane’s murder case has taken an unexpected twist. Lindani Ndimande, one of the accused, claims that his family has been harassed and threatened by the National Intervention Unit (NIU). Allegedly, this intimidation comes from higher-ups within the police department. ECR brought forward this intriguing development, which surfaced during Lindani’s bail application at Durban Magistrates Court.
On March 18th, a group of suspects, including 35-year-old Lindani Ndimande, appeared at the Magistrates Court. Accompanying him were Lindokuhle Thabani Mkhwanazi, Siyanda Eddie Myeza, Mziwethemba Harvey Gwabeni, and Lindokuhle “Lindo” Ndimande. Among the shocking claims he made, Lindani stated that the NIU had brutally treated six of his family members.
The situation escalated when Lindani revealed that two of his brothers sought refuge in eSwatini to escape the alleged harassment; they are currently awaiting extradition. Notably, the Ndimande family has a significant presence in the taxi industry, with Lindani himself being a part of the trade.
Lindani’s financial strength was brought to light when he disclosed that he earns an impressive quarter of a million rand per month, thanks to his ownership of four minibus taxis. This revelation provides some insight into the suspects’ ability to afford top-tier legal representation, a question that had been previously raised.
Five of the seven suspects linked to the murders of Kiernan AKA Forbes and Tebello Tibz Motsoane were present in the Durban Magistrate’s Court. Lindani, along with Lindokuhle Ndimande and Mziwethemba Gwabeni, were petitioning for bail.
Advocate Joe Wolmarans read Lindani’s affidavit to the court, a crucial document for his bail application. This document, reported by IOL, reinforced Lindani’s claim of innocence and his plan to plead not guilty. It outlined the circumstances of his arrest in October 2023 and his subsequent transfer from Empangeni to Durban.
Lindani alleges that he was assaulted by police in Durban and was forced into confessing his role in the murder of the famous musician. He fiercely denies any participation in the killings and states that he will plead not guilty.
Following these shocking revelations, the court adjourned, scheduling the bail hearing for the following Tuesday. This pause in the proceedings leaves the public anticipating the next progression in this ever-evolving mystery.
This case represents more than a criminal investigation; it is a complex tapestry woven from the lives of those implicated, their societal status, and alleged police misconduct. It provides a stark and disturbing representation of the socio-political context surrounding these high-profile murders. The public waits, watching with bated breath, for the next chapter in this thrilling real-life crime drama.
