Johannesburg - One of the seven men accused of the brutal murder of Andile âBoboâ Mbuthu, who was beaten to death for allegedly stealing alcohol during the lockdown in Tongaat last year, has been shot dead on Thursday morning.
Mlungisi Thabethe, 26, who was the owner of the Magagulaâs Lounge from which Mbuthu had allegedly stolen alcohol, was one of the seven murder accused in the murder case.
Thabethe was shot dead this morning while driving in his VW Polo.
Thabethe, who also ran his familyâs taxi business, was released on bail after he approached the Durban High Court in September last year. The Verulam Magistrateâs Court had denied him bail after he allegedly intimidated witnesses in the Mbuthu murder case.
