Nthabiseng Mokete a new witness testified at the North Gauteng High Court in Pretoria on Wednesday, 26 July on Senzo Meyiwa’s murder trial.
The witness was the Khumalos’ Vosloorus neighbor, and she claimed that the former Bafana Bafana captain was already dead in his then-girlfriend, Kelly Khumalo’s car.
According to a statement Mokete made on 27 October 2014, the day after Meyiwa was murdered, she arrived at the Khumalo house to find Meyiwa already deceased in Kelly’s vehicle.
Senzo was reportedly shot by intruders who gained access to the Khumalo’s house in 2014.
“I noticed his eyes were wide open and he was looking up. I kept touching his face and saying ‘Senzo, Senzo, stay with us we are about to arrive at the hospital’. I then lifted his t-shirt and I could feel that he was now cold in his stomach,” she said while crying.
“[Hospital employees] came out with a stretcher and I showed them where we had parked the vehicle. They took him out of the vehicle and put him on the stretcher, but you could just see he could not move or do anything. They took him inside and we followed,” she explained.
“In no time, I just heard my mother crying and that’s when we realised things weren’t going well. She came to us and said ‘U Senzo akasekho‘ [Senzo is no more]. We all stood there crying and while we were sitting there [Longwe’s father] Chicco Twala arrived,” she said.
