What was Kunene doing at home of DJ Sumbody's alleged killer?

THE Democratic Alliance (DA) in Johannesburg has called on City of Johannesburg’s MMC for Transport, Kenny Kunene to resign, after reports that he was found at the home of alleged mastermind of DJ Sumbody’s murder, Katiso “KT” Molefe.

Kunene has confirmed that he was at Molefe’s house when police arrived to arrest the Sandton businessman, Molefe, at his home in the plush neighbourhood on Monday.

News24 reported that Kunene was questioned by police on what he was doing at the scene, and he reportedly insisted that he had accompanied a certain journalist from his media company. Yesterday, IOL repeatedly tried to reach Kunene, who did not answer his phone. One of his staff members told IOL that they were not ready to respond to the allegations.

However, DA Johannesburg caucus leader, Belinda Kayser-Echeozonjoku said the revelations were damning for Kunene.

“Criminality and underworld links seem to be entrenched in the Patriotic Alliance (PA) as their Johannesburg leader was found at the home of a suspected murderer during his arrest,” she said.
