Matlala Trial | State witness justifies arrest of alleged gunman

A state witness in the attempted murder trial of Vusimuzi 'Cat' Matlala and four others, has told the High Court in Johannesburg that his decision to arrest alleged gunman, Musa Kekana, was justified.

Captain Phimi Sekgobela is testifying in a trial-within-a-trial, in which Kekana is fighting to have evidence obtained during his 2024 arrest thrown out of the court.

Kekana is on trial with Matlala, Tiego Mabusela, Tsakani Matlala, and Nthabiseng Nzama on charges of attempted murder and conspiracy to commit murder.

This relates to the botched hits on businessman, Joe Sibanyoni, music producer, Seunkie Mokubung, and Matlala's former partner, Tebogo Thobejane.
