Tshuma, a Zimbabwean-British national, is also sought in the UK for the alleged killing of his wife, Zandile, and their two children, 15-year-old Natalie and five-year-old Nala. Tshuma was arrested in Kensington, Johannesburg, following the incident and was found to be in possession of a firearm. The IT specialist is further expected to appear in another court to address extradition proceedings. Tshuma's lawyer, Chrispin Machingura, informs that negotiations for a possible section 105 agreement are ongoing, with final instructions needing to be discussed before the court reassembles.",
