Accused in AKA & Tibz murders claims his family being targeted by police
One of the men arrested for the murders of Kiernan “AKA” Forbes and Tebello “Tibz” Motsoane said his family was being targeted by police.
Lindani Ndimande appeared alongside four of his co-accused on Monday in the Durban Magistrates Court to apply for bail.
Lindani, together with his three brothers, Lindokuhle, Siyabonga and Malusi, have been arrested for Forbes and Motsoane’s murders.
While making his application for bail, Lindani Ndimande, outlined his family’s dealings with taxis, claiming they were well-known in the industry.
He said his family had long been targeted by the National Intervention Unit (NIU), under the instruction of police management.
He claims to have lost six family members in shootings with the NIU.
He further alleged his brothers Siyabonga and Malusi fled to Eswatini in fear of being assassinated by NIU members.
According to him, his family have a bounty on their heads.
Ndimande claims police assaulted him and forced him to confess to the killings.
His attorney, Advocate Joe Wolmarans, read his affidavit on record.
“The unlawful conduct of the members of the SAPS and forcing me to confess amounts to exceptional circumstances on its own. Their conduct amounts to a gross negation of my constitutional right.”
Ndimande, who owns four taxis, said he earned an income of R250,000 a month and could afford R20,000 bail.
The bail application for accused number four will resume on Tuesday.
