Alleged mastermind questions accused three in Lusikisiki mass murders
The alleged mastermind in Lusikisiki massacre has cross-examined accused number three.
Mzukisi Ndamase, the alleged mastermind behind the Lusikisiki mass murders, has challenged accused number three, Siphosoxolo Myekethe, at a special sitting in the Mthatha High Court. Ndamase, who is representing himself, alleged that Myekethe is aligning his testimony with that of the state witness, Lwando Abi. According to the court evidence, Myekethe remained outside the premises when the killings took place.
Myekethe denied being armed on the day of the incident and claimed he did not receive the video of politician Mncedisi Gijana's death from Ndamase. When questioned about not showing the video to the police, Myekethe stated that he exercised his right to delete it as he did not trust the police. He further alleged that he followed Ndamase's instructions out of fear for his life.
Ndamase and Myekethe, along with their co-accused, face multiple charges including murder and illegal possession of firearms and ammunition.
