Sipho Mkhatshwa, Philemon Lukhele and Albert Gama are believed to be behind the murder of former Economic Freedom Fighter (EFF) secretary general Godrich Gardee’s daughter in April.

JOHANNESBURG - The Nelspruit Magistrates Court will be hearing further mitigation arguments about why the three men accused of killing Hillary Gardee should be granted bail on Wednesday.

The investigating officer in the case, Colonel Thamsanqa Mkhaliphi, revealed to the court on Tuesday that the three suspects in the murder case colluded to kill one of the witnesses.On Tuesday the court heard the application for Mkhatshwa, who indicated that he had five children and a wife and was a Mpumalanga resident. This means he would be available for court dates when needed should he be granted bail.

Today the new revelations on Lukhele and Gama are expected to come up as their legal representative submits their bail application.
