Accused in DA chief whip's murder to remain in custody
Cape Argus
|June 02, 2025
ONE of the suspects accused of murdering uMngeni Municipality chief whip, DA councillor Nhlalayenza Ndlovu, was heard complaining about the conditions in Westville Prison when he and two other accused appeared in court for the murder.
Ndlovu was shot dead at his home near Mpophomeni in December 2023.
The man believed to be the main suspect, Zwelithini Buthelezi, was arrested and joined his two co-accused, Thobani Hlongwa and Khayelihle Shabalala, in the dock on Friday.
KwaZulu-Natal DA leader Francois Rodgers, who was in court alongside uMngeni Municipality Mayor Chris Pappas, Deputy Mayor Sandile Mnikathi and councillors, said Buthelezi did not apply for bail.
The case has been postponed to July 9 for further investigation.
All three suspects remain in custody.
