Suspects in EFF Monica Dube’s murder case appear in court

Sipho Mahlangu and David Mogwabo appeared in Cullinan Magistrate's Court, charged with Monica Dube's murder. Their trial was postponed to allow for bail considerations and legal representation. The Gauteng Political Killings Task Team (PKTT) arrested a second suspect, a 39-year-old male, following an intelligence-led investigation.

This individual is scheduled to face the same court on October 7, 2026, and will be charged with Monica Dube's murder. Monica Dube, an Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) member, was killed in June 2026 while her family watched in Wallmannsthal, North of Pretoria. EFF spokesperson Omphile Maotwe expressed gratitude to the PKTT for apprehending the suspects and emphasized the need for justice, as Monica's murder occurred in her home in front of her children, causing them great distress.
