Meyiwa witness changes testimony

PRETORIA - A new witness has made an about-turn on his evidence implicating at least two of the accused for Senzo Meyiwa’s murder.

Msizi Buthelezi had earlier told the court that accused two Bongani Ntanzi admitted to him that he and his friends had killed Meyiwa while attending a party.

But he later changed his evidence, insisting Ntanzi had told him police had claimed he killed the soccer star.

His evidence follows the cross-examination of the lead forensic investigator Thabo Mosia, who was recalled to the stand.

The trial continues on Wednesday with a new witness expected on the stand.
