“On the Dj Vintos case, we got all four accused which includes the alleged mastermind, Katiso Molefe and then on the Don Tindleni case we have only so far linked the three hit men, Katiso Molefe is not linked as of yet, to that particular case. So, Dj Vintos is four accused and don tindleni is three accused,” National police spokesperson, Athlenda Mathe explains.

The four accused including the alleged mastermind Katiso “KT” Molefe, were arrested in Gauteng earlier this month by the police’s political killings task force.
Sefoka was killed in a hail of bullets in Woodmead in November 2022.
Molefe’s bail application was postponed to the 6th of August, due to his defence not being adequately prepared to proceed today.
The case against the other three accused, as well as Molefe, was postponed to the 18th of September for further investigations.
They are all facing charges of murder and conspiracy to commit murder.
