The man who admitted that he sourced a hitman to kill Eastern Cape teacher Jayde Panayiotou is expected to be tried for murder and conspiracy to commit murder.
Luthando Siyoni, 37, is expected to appear in court this month in connection with the 2015 murder, according to HeraldLIVE.
He was the first person who was arrested in connection with the murder. He turned State witness, confessed to his role in sourcing a hitman and implicated Jayde s husband, Christopher Panayiotou, as the one who orchestrated the killing.
However, he was declared a hostile witness when he refused to answer questions at Panayiotou s trial.
