Durban - Former SANDF rifleman Thembinkosi Ngcobo who went on a shooting rampage in 2017 killing one person and injuring 10 others was jailed for life in the Durban High Court earlier today.
In passing sentence, Durban High Court Judge Shyam Gyanda, said he had found no substantial and compelling circumstances that would have made him deviate from the minimum sentence. The court heard that instead he feigned illness before deserting his post and driving to Durban on a "murder-suicide" mission.
However in 2018, a year after the shooting, Nonzuzo and her mother Nomusa Mbambo were shot and killed in their home. It is unknown who killed them.He also faced charges of being in contravention of the Firearms Control Act for being illegally in position of the state rifle and ammunition.
