Mokoena's wife, the accused 51-year-old Kelebogile Mokoena, and 31-year-old Elvis Sonnyboy Galeboe are not only alleged to have plotted and carried out the murder, but are believed to be lovers. The Mokoena's were congregants at a local church where Galeboe was a pastor.

The Pastor, believed to reside in Freedom Square township, made his first appearance in the Bloemfontein Magistrate’s Court on Monday, 5 August. Mokoena abandoned her bail application on July 18, as it was revealed during her court appearance that she not only hired the hitmen, paying them partly for the murder, but she allegedly poisoned her own dogs to make it easier for the trio to gain access into the couple’s Fichardt Park home on the night of July 8. The deceased was shot in the head by the hitmen. Police are mum on the possibility of more arrests in the matter.

It is expected that more details pertaining to the case and the connection between the suspects will be revealed in court today.
