One of the three men accused of assassinating Cape Town lawyer Pete Mihalik said nobody in the city would represent him when he started phoning around for a defence lawyer. | itchybyte
No lawyer in Cape Town would touch the Pete Mihalik case when the accused started phoning around to brief somebody.
Maliti testified that he called his lawyer Bruce Hendricks when he heard the police were at his house looking for him on the day of the assassination - 30 October 2018. Quickly gathered CCTV footage and witness statements gave the police an early lead, which was boosted by a chance traffic stop down the road.I was actually running a gold con right then, says taxi owner accused of killing lawyer Pete Mihalik
The neighbours at his townhouse in Bardale Village would have been extremely annoyed, too. The police broke down the wrong door in their frantic search for him at the complex after Khumalo struggled to remember which one was Maliti's unit. "You could just have said: 'Mommy, give the phone to the policeman', or, 'Mommy, tell them to hold on. I am coming to sort this mess out.'Maliti said that by then it was clear the police were not pussyfooting around. He went to his parents' house that evening, and he said the house had been trashed, and his father asked him,"What did you do?"
