Difficulty of prison consultations delays murder trial of Vusi ’Khekhe’ Mathibela, co-accused

Pretoria - The murder trial of the so-called Mamelodi's No1 Tsotsi Vusi"Khekhe" Mathibela and his three co-accused for the alleged assassination of billionaire businessman Wandile Bozwana has been postponed due to the difficulty of consultations in prison.

The matter which was due to proceed in the Gauteng High Court, Pretoria today hit another delay as the legal representative for the first two accused in the matter, Sipho Hudla and Matamela Robert Mutada, requested the matter be stood down in order to afford them time to properly consult with them. This was after the legal representative indicated that even though she had managed to see her clients briefly, she still experienced difficulty getting access to them whilst at the Kgosi Mampuru II Correctional Facility.

The legal representatives for Mathibela and his fourth co-accused Bonginkosi Paul Khumalo indicated that they were ready to proceed. The lawyer did however indicate that they had made an arrangement with the head of prison to afford them a private space with which they could consult with the two men.
