Sentencing of the four men who murdered Zoliswa Nkonyana was postponed to next month because not all their legal representatives were available on Wednesday.
Luyanda Londzi, Lubabalo Ntlabati, Sicelo Mase and Mbulelo Damba were sent back to Pollsmoor Prison. They are awaiting sentencing after the Khayelitsha Magistrate’s Court declared them guilty in October of killing Nkonyana in 2006.
Court proceedings started in 2008. The trial has been postponed at least 40 times. Arguments for mitigation started this week. It is believed she was killed because she was a lesbian.
The funeral procession of lesbian Nontsikelelo Tyatyeka will be held in Nyanga on Thursday. A Nyanga resident has been arrested for her murder. – Cape Times
