Advocate Gerrie Nel Claims That Senzo Meyiwa Was Assassinated in A Hit!
Advocate Gerrie Nel Claims That Senzo Meyiwa Was Assassinated in A Hit! The head of Afriforum said that this was not a robbery gone wrong. The astute Gerrie Nel claims that they will not rest until the “mastermind” has been charged.
Yesterday was the six-year anniversary to the tragic death of Senzo Meyiwa. Minister of Police Bheki Cele said that 5 arrests were made yesterday in connection to the murder of the former Orlando Pirates and Bafana Bafana captain.
These arrests were made a week after News24 broke the story that the weapon used to kill Senzo Meyiwa had been found. Astonishingly, the SAPS also announced that they have identified the person responsible for pulling the trigger.
Yesterday Gerrie Nel and Senzo’s brother Sifiso Meyiwa addressed the media. Head of AfriForum’s Private Prosecution Unit Gerrie Nel disclosed that they have concluded that Meyiwa was pre-emptively slain.
“We have been briefed to say this was not a robbery gone wrong.
“This was an assassination. So, the one outstanding aspect here, and we are disappointed it has not happened yet, is to address the mastermind — because if there is a hit, there is a mastermind
“We feel fairly confident that our involvement, change of the [police investigating] team, and the movement of the case from one office to another, put a new focus on the investigation and allowed people to just focus on the evidence and to move the case forward,” Nel added
Sifiso Meyiwa displayed shock at the media conference.
“I am still in shock at what I am hearing … though we are grateful, we remain anxious that the mastermind has not been arrested.
“We remain hopeful that more arrests will follow,” Sifiso said.
