Rosemary Ndlovu and Nomsa Mudau sentenced to 10 years after failed murder plot

Former police officers Rosemary Ndlovu and Nomsa Mudau have been sentenced to 10 years in prison for a failed 2018 murder plot against Mudau's husband. Ndlovu, who is already serving six life sentences for the murders of five family members and her partner, approached a man previously involved in those murders and requested his assistance in killing Mudau's husband.

The Kempton Park Magistrate's Court found both accused guilty of incitement to commit murder. Mudau had claimed her husband was abusive and a cheater, and intended to pay hitmen after their husband's death. The court emphasized that no individual entrusted with upholding the law is above it, and the National Prosecuting Authority welcomed the sentence as a demonstration that those who plan or incite murder will be held accountable.
