Matlala trial to hear evidence from key witness Musa Kekana
Matlala is accused of orchestrating three failed assassination attempts.
When the trial for the attempted murder of Vusimuzi “Cat” Matlala and four others resumes at the South Gauteng High Court in Johannesburg, a crucial piece of evidence from a defense witness will be presented. Matlala is accused of planning three unsuccessful assassination attempts against his ex-girlfriend, Tebogo Thobejane, businessman Joe Sibanyoni, and music producer Seunkie Mokubung, also known as DJ Vettys.
These incidents took place between August 2022 and January 2024. The trial within a trial, which involves accused one, Musa Kekana, is scheduled to begin once again, with Kekana expected to testify about the events surrounding his arrest in the 2024 murder of Vereeniging engineer, Armand Swart. As the state's case against Matlala and his co-defendants nears completion, Kekana's account of the day he was detained will be a pivotal addition to the ongoing proceedings.
