The death comes just days after defence advocate, Malesela Teffo approached the court to have the trial brought forward, claiming that the lives of the witnesses were in danger.“Every witness in a prosecution is very important, especially if the state must prove its case beyond reasonable doubt. The absence of this witness as a result of him passing on might have a huge impact on the states case.

The death of this witness poses a serious danger to the possible collapse of the case with the possible escape of kingpins who financed this possible hit

Whoever is behind this Senzo murder is way too big, he or she can buy SA if s/he can buy the Justice system.
