Cape Town – South African award-winning singer, Kelly Khumalo’s sister Zandie Khumalo-Gumede, has revealed that she has been called by police to testify in the Senzo Meyiwa murder case.
Zandie took to her Instagram timeline on Wednesday and said that she had been contacted by the police about testifying in the murder trial set to resume on November 14.
She also thanked her husband, Mhlonishwa Gumede for being her source of strength.
“The best dad in my world, the one who makes things happen but doesn’t ever mind the ‘behind the scenes’ role. My ‘Mr Calm’ my ‘Don’t worry baby it will work out’. Yesterday I said to him ‘Brigadier so and so called. They want to come to the house on Thursday and consult with me cos they want me to go and testify on the SM case’,

“He calmly said ‘Abeze phela’ and suddenly I was at peace. Thank u Myeni wami for everything, u are really my source of strength.”
In July this year, Zandie shared her side of the story during an interview with eNCA.
“I was the one sitting with Senzo at the back (of the car) putting pressure on the wound leading to the hospital. Even on our way to the hospital I could feel him getting cold from his feet … I was busy talking to him all the way, trying to keep him alive but unfortunately …” she said.
She also questioned why the police had not questioned Senzo’s wife and mother who were strongly against his relationship with her sister Kelly.
Zandie said that she couldn’t wait for her day in court.
Meyiwa was gunned down at his then-girlfriend, Kelly’s home in Vosloorus, Gauteng on the evening of October 26, 2014.
Six years later, in 2020, Muzikawukhulelwa S’Tembu Sibiya, Bongani Sandiso Ntanzi, Mthobisi Prince Mncube, Mthokoziseni Ziphozonke Maphisa, and Fisokuhle Ntuli were arrested.
The men were charged with murder, attempted murder, armed robbery, and illegal possession of firearms and ammunition.
