The police officer told the court, in his evidence-in-chief, that the police first learnt of Ntanzi’s alleged involvement in Meyiwa’s murder from an informant in 2019.However, they could not find the suspect for six months while they traced him. Unlicensed ammunition was also found by the police during his arrest. The suspect was booked into custody at the Pretoria North police station on the same day.
“Accused number two gave Sergeant Mogola the address where he resided and that was the first time he denied his involvement in the death of Senzo Meyiwa,” the defence lawyer said. “What actually prompted you to go to the address if there was no warrant of arrest?” the advocate asked.
