Advocate Malesela Teffo says the five accused in the SenzoMeyiwa murder trial are mere scapegoats.

It is understood the National Prosecution Authority has not moved to charge anyone based on the second docket, and only moved to prosecution on the basis of the first docket with the version that gunmen had entered the house, demanded cell phones, and shot Meyiwa following a scuffle.

Earlier, Adv Teffo argued that the crime scene had been tampered with, insisting that Meyiwa was already dead by the time he was removed from the scene and transported to the hospital. Teffo argued that the removal “of the body” amounted to contamination of the crime scene. Mosia would not comment on whether Meyiwa was still alive when he was transported to hospital except to say when he arrived at the hospital, the secondary crime scene while looking for the address to the primary crime scene on Kutlwanong Street in Vosloorus, Meyiwa had already been declared dead.“I put it to you that, that crime scene was not complete without the body of the victim,” says Teffo.
