In a shocking turn of events, police records in the Senzo Meyiwa murder trial have unveiled a statement by singer Kelly Khumalo, expressing her regret for not succeeding in getting rid of the Bafana Bafana captain before.
The Pretoria High Court witnessed groundbreaking evidence during a trial within a trial on Wednesday, shedding new light on the case. Confessions from two of the accused confirmed Khumalo’s alleged involvement in ordering the hit on Meyiwa, who tragically died at Khumalo’s home in Vosloorus in October 2014.
Brigadier Bongani Gininda’s statement presented in court suggests that Khumalo’s decision to murder her lover, Meyiwa, was not impulsive but rather a calculated plan. According to Gininda, communication records between Khumalo and her sister, Zandi Khumalo, indicate her longstanding desire to eliminate Meyiwa.

As early as 2013, Khumalo expressed her intention to “get rid of” the deceased, revealing a deep-seated hatred towards him. Furthermore, she expressed regret for not succeeding in her previous attempts to eliminate him.
Zandi Khumalo, who testified as a witness last year, played a significant role in the case. The court heard that Khumalo’s cell phone communication with the third and fifth accused was already known, but further details emerged from the analysis of their phones.
Notably, Khumalo’s cell phone memory album contained a photo of a see-through bag filled with cash notes, positioned exactly as described by the third accused.
During the investigation, it was discovered that Khumalo had four undisclosed cell phone numbers, which she had not disclosed to the police. This revelation added another layer of complexity to the case, raising questions about the extent of Khumalo’s involvement and potential motive.
The unfolding details from the police records paint a disturbing picture of the events leading up to Meyiwa’s tragic death. While the trial is ongoing, it is essential to remember that these are allegations presented in court and that the final verdict rests with the judicial system.
The Senzo Meyiwa murder case has captured public attention since its inception, with the untimely death of a beloved sports figure and the alleged involvement of a prominent singer.
The trial has become a significant milestone in the pursuit of justice and closure for Meyiwa’s family and the South African public. As the proceedings continue, it is crucial to maintain respect for the legal process and allow the court to assess the evidence presented.
The revelations from the police records provide valuable insight into the case, but it is ultimately the responsibility of the court to determine guilt or innocence based on the evidence and testimonies presented.
