AKA murder accused in court for bail application
The five people linked to the murders of Kiernan 'AKA' Forbes and Tebello Motsoane are expected to ask for bail on Thursday morning.
Five of the seven men will line up in the Durban Magistrate's Court.
Just over a year, after Forbes and Motsoane were gunned down outside the Wish Restaurant on Durban's Florida Road, police announced the arrests of the suspects who have so far twice appeared in court under heavy police guard.
In their last appearance, the state confirmed that two charges of money laundering had been added to the dozen charges they face already.
The first new charge was against accused number four, Mziwethemba Gwabeni who is believed to be the mastermind and co-ordinator in the assassination plot.
While Lindokuhle Mkhwanazi, Lindani and Lindokuhle Ndimande face a charge of benefiting from proceedings of money laundering.
All of the accused, including Eddie Myeza face charges of conspiracy to commit murder, attempted murder and unlawful possession of a firearm.
Myeza's private legal representative has previously told reporters that the accused have nothing to do with the murder.
Meanwhile, the extradition case of two brothers, arrested in eSwatini has been postponed to next week Wednesday.
The court heard the extradition application documents have not yet arrived in the Kingdom.
