Judgment set for Durban cop accused of killing ex-girlfriend
Judgment in the case against a former eThekwini metro police officer, accused of killing his ex-girlfriend, is set to be handed down in the Durban High Court on Tuesday.
Twenty-nine-year-old Zinhle Muthwa's body was found on the side of a road in the Ndaya Reserve on the KZN South Coast on New Year’s Day last year.
The state claims Ndumiso Khumalo shot and killed 29-year-old Muthwa on New Year’s Eve.
It is alleged that the former constable dumped her bruised body the day after.

It's understood that he worked as a metro police officer for some five years.
He resigned from his position in January last year.
