Sindiso Magaqa murder trial postponed to 2020

The family of slain former ANC youth league leader Sindiso Magaqa will have to wait longer to get justice.

The former ANC Youth League secretary-general was gunned down in KwaZulu-Natal in 2017.

The case against three men accused of his murder has been postponed to April next year.

Sibonelo Myeza, Mbulelo Mpofana, and Mxolisi Ncalane are facing murder charges.

They were denied bail earlier this year.

A representative for Magaqa’s family says the postponements are taking a toll.

Meanwhile, a close friend of the Magaqa says he’s concerned about his own safety.

He’s alleging that the perpetrators are behind the postponement of the murder case to get rid of the witnesses.

Thabiso Zulu testified during a probe into political killings in KwaZulu-Natal and exposed rampant corruption at Umzimkhulu Municipality where Magaqa was a councillor.
