Sibiya lambasted for not disclosing whereabouts on day in question


The State in the Senzo Meyiwa trial has lambasted accused number one, Muzi Sibiya, for failing to disclose that he was in KwaZulu-Natal the day Senzo Meyiwa was killed.

While Sibiya initially said he lived in KZN between 2013 and 2014, state prosecutor George Baloyi says he never disclosed his alibi for October 26, 2014,  the day Meyiwa was murdered.

Sibiya is under cross-examination at the High Court in Pretoria, where he is appearing alongside four other co-accused.

Sibiya insists he was not at the crime scene, and says he was never asked previously about his exact whereabouts on the day in question.

“I’m saying that, I was not at the Basotho hostel on the 26th of October 2014. And I have never met with these people that are said to be my co-accused on the 26th of October 2014, at. Yes, there is a point that you fail to mention that you were at KZN even if you cannot remember precisely whereabout in KZN that you were in KZN.”
