The murder case involving beloved South African media personality Warrick ‘DJ Warras’ Stock is set to return to the Johannesburg Magistrates Court on Wednesday as investigations into his killing continue.
Two accused men, Armindo Pacula and Vincent Majola, are facing serious charges linked to the death of the popular radio and media figure. The charges include premeditated murder and conspiracy to commit murder.
The case has drawn widespread attention since the shocking killing of DJ Warras in 2025. The media personality was shot and killed outside Zambesi House, a residential building located in the Johannesburg CBD, where he had reportedly been contracted to conduct auditing and security work.
Five months have now passed since the two suspects were arrested in connection with the high-profile murder.

The upcoming court appearance is expected to focus on the disclosure of additional investigation findings as authorities continue gathering evidence related to the case.
According to previous court proceedings, investigators are still finalising several key aspects of the investigation. During the suspects’ earlier appearance in April, the State revealed that it was still waiting for important forensic and technical evidence.
This includes facial comparison analysis, financial records, and cellphone data that may help strengthen the case against the accused.
The State believes the outstanding evidence could provide crucial information about the events leading up to the murder of Warrick ‘DJ Warras’ Stock and any possible conspiracy linked to the crime.
Authorities have remained tight-lipped about the finer details of the investigation, but the matter continues to generate public interest because of DJ Warras’ popularity and influence within the South African entertainment industry.
Pacula is also facing an additional charge relating to immigration matters, as authorities allege he was in South Africa illegally at the time of his arrest.
The accused are expected to remain in custody while the investigation progresses.
The death of Warrick ‘DJ Warras’ Stock sent shockwaves through the entertainment and broadcasting industry when news of his killing first emerged.
Known for his energetic personality, media presence, and contribution to radio and entertainment, DJ Warras built a loyal following over the years. Fans and colleagues described him as passionate, hardworking, and deeply committed to his craft.
Tributes poured in across social media after his death, with many South Africans expressing sadness and outrage over the violent circumstances surrounding his killing.
His murder also reignited concerns around violent crime and safety in parts of Johannesburg, especially in the CBD area where the incident occurred.
Reports indicated that DJ Warras had been working on a project involving Zambesi House at the time of the shooting. He had allegedly been contracted to assist with auditing and securing the residential building before tragedy struck.
Investigators have not yet publicly disclosed a clear motive for the murder, although the ongoing investigation is expected to uncover more details in the coming months.
As the case continues through the legal system, many South Africans are closely following developments and hoping for justice for Warrick ‘DJ Warras’ Stock and his family.
The matter remains one of the country’s most closely watched entertainment-related criminal cases in recent years.
Legal experts believe the additional evidence still being processed could play a major role in determining how the trial proceeds. Cellphone records, financial transactions, and facial recognition analysis are often critical components in complex criminal investigations involving conspiracy allegations.
The court is expected to receive updates from prosecutors regarding the progress of these investigations when the matter resumes on Wednesday.
For now, the case remains ongoing, with the accused still facing multiple serious charges connected to the killing of DJ Warras.
As supporters continue remembering the late media personality, attention will once again turn to the Johannesburg Magistrates Court as the legal process unfolds and investigators work to piece together the full circumstances surrounding his death.
