Mthokozisi Thwala, a close friend of slain Bafana Bafana and Orlando Pirates captain Senzo Meyiwa, testified in court on Friday that Meyiwa’s girlfriend, Kelly Khumalo, had his identity document when a SIM swap was done on his phone. The SIM swap was conducted on the day after Meyiwa was shot and killed in Khumalo’s home in 2014. The purpose of the SIM swap is unclear, but it could have allowed the killer or killers to access Meyiwa’s phone records and other personal information.

 

Thwala told the court that he gave Khumalo Meyiwa’s identity document after the shooting so that she could use it to make funeral arrangements. He said that he did not know that she had used the document to do a SIM swap. Advocate Mshololo, who is representing one of the five accused suspects, questioned Thwala about the SIM swap. She asked him if he knew why Khumalo had done it, and he said that he did not.

The SIM swap is one of several pieces of evidence that prosecutors are using to build their case against the five accused suspects. The suspects are accused of murder, robbery with aggravating circumstances, and possession of an illegal firearm. The trial is ongoing, and it is not clear when a verdict will be reached. However, the testimony of Thwala and other witnesses has raised new questions about the case, and it is possible that the SIM swap could be a key piece of evidence.

The comments section of the article included a number of people who expressed their own theories about Meyiwa’s death. One commenter said that they believed the killing was a hit, and that Khumalo had orchestrated it. The commenter also said that there was a rumor that Meyiwa had slept with Khumalo’s younger sister, which had led to a confrontation and his death.

Another commenter said that they believed Khumalo was innocent, and that the SIM swap was simply a coincidence. They said that it was possible that someone else had done the SIM swap in order to access Meyiwa’s phone records. The comments section of the article shows that there is still a lot of public interest in the Meyiwa case, and that people have strong opinions about what happened. The trial is ongoing, and it will be interesting to see what the verdict is.
