Report: Police botching Senzo Meyiwa case─── 09:39 Sun, 25 Jan 2015
Johannesburg - Police investigating the murder of former Bafana Bafana captain Senzo Meyiwa are reportedly still no closer to finding his killer and are accused of bungling the case from the outset.
According to the Sunday Times, a police source with knowledge of the investigation said there was still no progress in this case and that it was a mess.
Meyiwa’s father, Sam Meyiwa, told the newspaper that he was concerned his son’s killer had not been caught. He said detectives had visited him at his home in Umlazi, near Durban, about two weeks ago and told him they did not want to make the same mistake twice and arrest the wrong person.
This after Gauteng provincial commissioner Lieutenant-General Lesetja Mothiba said on 18 December that the case was a priority and that police were certain of a breakthrough soon.
Meyiwa was killed in Vosloorus, Ekurhuleni, while visiting his singer and actress girlfriend Kelly Khumalo. Two men allegedly entered the house on 26 October and demanded cellphones before shooting Meyiwa and running away.
