Three suspects in Aubrey Tsengwa murder to appear in Knysna court
The three will make their second appearance in the local magistrate's court.
Three individuals implicated in the murder of Aubrey Tsengwa, the former Mayor of Knysna and a former African National Congress councillor, are set to face Knysna Magistrate’s Court on Monday for a second time. The trio was apprehended by a provincial task force last weekend, who were tasked with investigating the murders of Tsengwa, former Ward 7 councillor Mandla Matiwane, and taxi boss Mandla Tyololo.
The three victims were all shot and killed earlier in the month. Their remains were interred over the weekend. Additionally, a police task team member was also killed in a shootout with a suspect last week. The case involving the Tsengwa suspects was adjourned last week to allow for a witness identification parade. One of Tsengwa's passengers, who sustained gunshot wounds, is believed to be a crucial witness in the case. So far, no arrests have been made in the other two murders.
