Zandie Khumalo defends her sister, Kelly Khumalo while calling for the need to investigate Senzo Meyiwa’s widow Mandisa Mkhize.
The Senzo murder case has been ongoing for years, with no clarity on who ordered the hit on the soccer star.
Senzo was gunned down at his girlfriend Kelly Khumalo’s home in Vosloorus, Ekurhuleni, on 26 October 2014.
Speaking to eNCA, Zandie said it’s been discovered that the hitmen are from Nongoma, where Mandisa originally comes from.
Zandie said she’s tried to mention the above discovery to the leading investigating office in the Senzo murder trial, Brigadier Bongani Gininda.
The singer also sought to know those paying the accused lawyer.
“Who’s paying them? We all know that these people (the accused) are doing lousy jobs, some of them were dancers at some point and other miners. They don’t have that much capital to have these people (lawyers) representing them. Lawyers are ‘bad’, but they get paid at the end of the day. Who’s paying them?” she said.
“Mshololo stays in Durban, and flies to Joburg every time she has to represent accused number five. Who’s paying for the hotel (accommodation)? Who’s paying for her? Plus, she has a partner. If the police must follow the money trail, maybe something will come out, I don’t know.”
Zandie said her Kelly didn’t order the hit.
“She’s not capable of ordering the hit and at that time. Also, we need to take into account that she was on the verge of going back to the (music) industry because she was off for some time.”
“So, she didn’t have capital and taking into account that she loved him. She had more to lose. She had nothing to gain, so for me there was no motive there,” she said.
