Constable Zungu states that he visited a hostel in Vosloorus to see his nephew. During this visit, he asserts that he encountered the accused individuals and shared alcoholic beverages with them. This occurred on 26 October 2014, while he was visiting his brother’s son, Gwabini Zungu.On Monday, advocate Charles Mnisi, representing Mncube, challenged Zungu’s claim that he had a social gathering with the five men at the hostel.

The advocate stated, “Are you now admitting that the car you’ve consistently referred to as an Uno was not actually an Uno?”Zungu responded, “Whether it was an Uno or a Polo, I didn’t examine it closely, but the vehicle in the picture is a smaller red one, which we used.” Zungu acknowledged that the car could have been a VW Polo but emphasised that the incident occurred a long time ago.Zungu also concurred with Mnisi’s assertion that the accused could be connected to Meyiwa’s murder because they were present at the hostel that day.
