Wife hires a hitman to unalive her police hubby just two months after wedding to claim insurance money
A South African woman has been accused of organising a hit on her metro police husband.
Sibongile Dlamini, 42, who is accused number two in the matter, was arrested on Valentine’s Day just hours before the burial of her husband, Banele Skosana, 32.
Dlamini appeared alongside accused number one Ntliziyozabantu Magwanyana, who is said to be the gunman and was arrested shortly after the murder.
Allegations are that the hitman had revealed that the mastermind was Dlamini.
Dlamini, who wore grey track pants and a sweater, appeared in front of a packed courtroom yesterday.
Addressing the court, prosecutor Bhekisiza Mbatha made an application for Dlamini to be added to the matter, saying that Magwanyana had already appeared before the court after his arrest on February 10.
“The matter is here before the court because the state made an application for accused number two [Dlamini] to be joined in this matter. The state also requests a postponement of the bail hearing to allow the state to capture accused number two’s profile.
The two are facing a charge of premeditated murder, a schedule 6 offence and the state will be opposing bail,” he said.
The matter was then postponed to Friday.
