They are facing 35 charges, including murder and unlawful possession of firearms and ammunition.
Molefe is accused of orchestrating the killing of Oupa Sefoka, popularly known as DJ Sumbody, in Woodmead in November 2022.
Earlier, the state said forensic evidence linked guns used to kill DJ Sumbody to several other high-profile killings, including those of Hector Buthelezi, also known as DJ Vintos, Don Tindleni and Armand Swart.
Judge Thifhelimbilu Mudau says Molefe’s co-accused will remain in custody
“Mr Molefe, I am addressing you. Hear what I said: your bail is extended on the same terms under which you were released on bail. The rest of the accused will remain in custody.”
