Businessman Vusimuzi “Cat” Matlala together with co-accused appear in the High Court in Johannesburg on January 29, 2026.
The case against alleged underworld kingpin Vusimuzi ‘Cat’ Matlala, together with his four co-accused, is expected to resume this morning at the High Court in Johannesburg.
Matlala is accused of orchestrating the failed assassinations of his former girlfriend, Tebogo Thobejane, businessman Joe Sibanyoni, and music producer Seunkie Mokubung, popularly known as DJ Vettys.
Matlala together with his co-accused are expected to once again return to the dock this morning for the resumption of their case.
This follows their defence teams telling the court that the state is intentionally withholding evidence despite their numerous attempts to obtain all the relevant documents.
Matlala, his wife Tsakane, alleged hit-men Musa Kekana and Tiego Mabusela, together with Ntabiseng Nzama face 25 charges in connection with three botched hits between August 2022 and January 2024.
