NW businessman Bozwana’s murder trial postponed | News Article

The murder trial of North West businessman, Wandile Bozwana, will resume on 15 February next year.


The case was postponed after a retired senior police officer Francois Muller concluded his testimony in the High Court in Pretoria.

Muller testified about cell phone communication between the four accused, Sipho Hudla, Robert Mutapa, Vusi “Khekhe” Mathibela, and Bonginkosi Khumalo.

Bozwana died in a hail of bullets at the Garsfontein freeway intersection from the N1 North in October 2015.

Muller’s testimony follows that of Sergeant Gavin Ndlovu who told the court they seized three cell phones during the arrest of one of the accused.

Sipho Hudla and three others have, so far, pleaded not guilty to charges of murder and attempted murder.

Muller told the court that during the assessment of cell phone records, it was discovered that there was communication between the accused on the day Bozwana was murdered.

The communication, Muller said, shows a trail that followed Bozwana from Sandton City Square Mall, along the highway until Pretoria where he was shot dead. The matter was postponed to next year.
