His legal representative, Rashaad Moosa, revealed that the South African Police Service (Saps) had issued another disciplinary notice against Sibiya, this time related to firearm regulations.
The state also added a firearm-related charge to the existing allegations against Sibiya, which stem from a gun found in his vehicle during his arrest. Moosa stated that the charges involved the storage of the firearm.
