Modack and his co-accused face 124 charges for a host of crimes, including murder and attempted murder. The trial is the gateway into Cape Town's criminal underworld characterised by greed, abuse of power, corruption and ordered executions.

CAPE TOWN - The high-profile trial against alleged organised crime kingpin Nafiz Modack and 14 other co-accused currently underway in the Western Cape High Court has given a gruesome insight into Cape Town's criminal underworld.

The spotlight then briefly turns to former Anti-Gang Unit member and one of the co-accused in the matter, Ashley Tabisher. It is the State's case that in 2017, the AGU reported to Vearey, while Kinnear worked in the same unit as a lieutenant. The State says members of the unit - led by Kinnear - seized firearms and ammunition from Modack's security company in April that year.

Mr A tells the court he was driven to Melkbostrand with three other co-accused Riyaat Gesant, Fagmeed Kelly and Mario Petersen.
