Senzo Meyiwa Murder Trial | 30 October 2023

Lt Colonel Solomon Raphadu will continue to be on the stand during the Senzo Meyiwa trial within a trial. He is another police officer who has told the High Court in Pretoria that accused number 2, Bongani Ntanzi, freely and voluntarily deposed of a confession on 19 June 2020. This is separate from the confession Ntazi allegedly made to the Magistrate Vivian Cronje.

[@sphiwendhlovu8264]

Why was the accused transported with private cars instead of a state car. This witness agreed that a fortuner was used, which means the accused is telling the truth.

[@klentjie]

U can hear that the witness is rehearsing."i met the suspect at moroka" he makes sure he repeats that even when he is not asked

[@pinkynomalimkhize1990]

The defense should kanvas the tracking records of these cars, to see which areas these cars travelled on the day of the assault and also ask for camera records of Baragwanath hospital if any.
