Meyiwa and Khumalo were in a relationship at the time.


Madlala told the court that two men walked into the house and demanded phones and money.


He says Meyiwa tried to restrain one of them.


"He was right there in the kitchen because Senzo was holding this guy's right hand and he was pressing him against the wall."
