Kunene was found at Molefe’s house on Monday when the police went to effect an arrest for the brutal murder of Oupa “Dj Sumbody Sefoka.
He maintains that the allegations against him are unfounded. Although PA had already suspended him, Kunene says he is stepping away from the spotlight while his party investigates the matter adding that it is the interest of the public for him to clear his name before returning to serving them. Kunene says he remains committed to the upliftment of communities and will continue to support the Patriotic Alliance’s broader mission.
