‘ Tumelo wanted to tell the truth when Senzo died’: Sifiso Meyiwa

Senzo Meyiwa’s brother claims his friend Tumelo Madlala wanted to tell the truth before he was ‘taken to a sangoma’ after the star’s murder.

SIFISO MEYIWA ON TUMELO MADLALA’S TESTIMONY

Sifiso said that the Tumelo who testified in court is not the Tumelo they know and who loved the footballer.

“Tumelo was so fond of Senz, he used to say that he would die for him,” Sifiso told eNCA journalists Manqoba Mchunu.

He further said that a lot happened immediately after his brother’s murder.

“They took Tumelo to a sangoma. I believe he was cloned… That isn’t the Tumelo we know. The real Tumelo would have told the truth.

“They are protecting someone because on the day Senzo died, someone who was present (whom I will not mention) heard an angry Tumelo saying ‘you brought me from Umlazi to see this nonsense.’ They were blocking him and when they said a cover-up story was needed, Tumelo said ‘No! I will not do that’.

Adv. Nxumalo – who is representing accused number four, Mthokoziseni Maphisa – said that Kelly’s statement was in contrast to Tumelo’s testimony, as he said he only saw sprinkles or spots of blood.

Responding, Tumelo said: “That statement… I want that one to come and explain that because even the blood she’s talking about, I don’t know where she saw it. What I remember is that there were only blood spots in the house.”
