The court heard on Tuesday that the plot to kill former ANCYL secretary-general Sindiso Magaqa was allegedly hatched the year before his death.

The decision to deny or grant bail for three men implicated in a plot to kill former ANC Youth League secretary-general Sindiso Magaqa was on Wednesday postponed to next week.

The trio was initially charged alongside Harry Gwala District Municipality mayor Mluleki Ndobe and uMzimkhulu Local Municipality manager Zweliphansi Skhosana, but charges against Ndobe and Skhosana were provisionally withdrawn due to lack of evidence. It is not yet clear on whose alleged authority they were working – if any – and what the motive for the attack was. The court heard on Tuesday that the plot to kill Magaqa was allegedly hatched the year before his death.

Magaqa – a PR councillor at uMzimkhulu Local Municipality at the time of his death – was ambushed while with colleagues Nontsikelelo Mafa and Jabu Msiya in July 2017.
