Zukisa Tshabile, 41, has been sentenced to 30 years in prison for the murder of prominent community activist Loyiso Nkohla-Mabandla, according to SABC News. The High Court in Cape Town handed down the sentence after Tshabile pleaded guilty to 15 charges in an agreement with the state. Nkohla-Mabandla, known for his activism in the Ses 'Khona People’s Movement advocating for sanitation rights in Khayelitsha, was shot and killed in April 2023 while mediating the relocation of residents who had built shacks on PRASA’s Central line in Cape Town. Two additional accused in the case are scheduled to appear separately in court.
